When it comes to shopping for kids clothing, I don’t think any store can beat Target for its overall combination of price, design and product quality not only in the U.S. but also in other parts of the world. I’m sure there are a ton of as cute or cuter items found at many other stores, but I can almost guarantee that the original prices cannot compete with Target. Target has never disappointed me with its children’s swim selections. I like the coral pink color swimsuits for girls. I find the color prettier than a typical tone of hot pink.
These photos were taken in Rockport, a small town on the Gulf Coast of Texas. We went to a beach, made a sand castle (we tried…) together and played in the water and on the sand. Our first one is a fish who loves to stay in the water as long as she can and our second one is a lizard who would rather bask in the sun than splash water. The second one decided to stay on the sand and snack on the Gold Fish after she got done with a sand castle while her daddy and sister went back in the water to swim. I did dip in the water for a while, too.
I finally got to the second half of our summer trip in Texas. After that I will move onto our time in Tokyo and then a few posts about Bali. It’s taking a while for me to catch up with the posts from our vacation and it’s not easy! I can’t wait to start writing about Jakarta again! I would like to thank those who have left me with comments in June and July during my vacation. Thank you so much for your comments!! I always read your comments and they mean a lot to me. I am sorry that I don’t always have the time to write you back, but I treasure each one of your comment!
子供服に関しては、値段、デザイン性、質、全てにおいてターゲットの右に出るお店は、全米にも、世界の他の国にも無いと思います。ターゲットよりも可愛いデザインや色使いの服を販売している店はもちろんありますが、その上値段となると、ターゲットは他の会社に追随を許さないと思います。ターゲットには期待を裏切られたことがないんですよ。ターゲットで見つけたこのコーラルピンクの色の水着は、女の子が着ると、ホットピンクよりもとても可愛らしいな、と感じました。
この記事に掲載した写真は、ロックポートというメキシコ湾沿いのテキサスの街で滞在した時のものです。子供達を連れて海岸に行き、砂のお城(のつもり)を作ったり、海に浸かったり、日光浴したりしました。長女はずっと水の中で遊んでいられる、魚のような子なのに対し、次女はトカゲのように太陽の下で暖まっている方が好きです。砂のお城を作り終えた後、夫と長女は泳ぎに水に入ったのですが、次女は砂のところでゴールドフィッシュというお魚の形をしたクラッカーのおやつを食べる事にしたようです。私も少し水に浸かりに行きました。
やっとテキサスでの旅行に関する書きたい内容の半分を終えました。残りのテキサスに関する記事を書いた後は、日本での事、そしてバリでの記事を少し書こうと思っています。休暇中の時の内容を掲載するのに、思ったより時間が掛かってしまいました。早くジャカルタに関する記事を書きたいなと思います。私の休暇中、6月と7月にコメントを残して下さった皆様、ありがとうございます。いつもコメントを楽しく読ませていただいています。毎回お返事を残せず、ごめんなさい。皆さんからの言葉一つ一つを有り難く受け止めています。これからもよろしくお願いいたします。

I like the fish and lizard analogy. LOL.
I agree about Target, I recently purchased a striped swimsuit and ballerina shoes for Beli. can’t beat prices and quality.

I totally love the coral on their skin tones Kaho! Good choice of color!

I have to agree with you about Le Target… simply can’t beat price, choices, and yes, you’re right again – at that price point…their products have pretty good quality. Sometimes I’m dying to find the perfect top – 10 stores later, I just remembered that Target is there and I usually find what I’m looking for. Don’t know why I often forget that place is a pretty reliable outfit source!The only things that I don’t enjoy from them is the shoe selections…I think payless have better stuff.
Tutu swimsuit and pedicured toes = the perfect summer!

Which tool do u use to edit the pic to post it on your blog kaho.
Kaho says
I use iPhoto for photo editing, so I’m no where near skilled…. I use Picasa and used to use Picnik.com as well for photo collage. I use Picasa a lot for collages now. I am trying to use picmonkey now that I heard they have collage function. I liked it a lot when I used it last time for photo editing.
