Mia's 七五三


20131116-Mia753-2

November is time for the Shichi-Go-San festival in Japan for girls who are 3 and 7 and boys who are 5. It's a celebration of the growth of the child and a time for parents to pray for their children's prosperity. Families typically go to the local shrine for the ceremony and then go to a photo studio. We just went to pray and take a few pictures. Mia's Japan Grandmother got her the beautiful kimono she's wearing for the occasion and she loved wearing it. She did get tired of Dada taking too many photos after a while. More on Shichi-Go-San [七五三] here.
