Kimono Photo Shoot

On the tying of obi: Julia says, "I remember when my cousins and I were kids, our aunties would always help us in donning our kimono, tying that obi to perfection. Now I'm the auntie; I hope that Auntie Caroline wouldn't have been too ashamed of the way I tied the obi! But Auntie Courtney did a great job of upholding the family tradition!"

Kimonos!

At the July 13 reunion, family historian and photographer Cathy Fujimori (with lots of help from various family members) hosted a very popular photo shoot complete with kimono, obi, happi coats, yukata, and various accessories.
