They are relaxed and happy.
Prince with camera looks like another proud dad.
Masako is really beautiful and looks so young on photos. Longer hairstyle suits her.

Thanks, thanks, Mandyy! These are the nicest pictures of Masako this year, IMO.....especially the first one! I'm glad to see her looking better and better as the days pass by. The event sounded like very fun for all. But the ball was too big for little Aiko, nevertheless she kept on the game.

Yes! I agree, with this monica17 -- what a genuinely happy Masako in these shots. In fact, in the third video she almost looks giddy with happiness watching the game. I also thought there was nice complicity between she and Naruhito as they watched, giving doubt to any rumors of divorce that have surfaced. Mandyy -- you've done it again and thank you so much. I think for Masako well wishers, these are the photos we have been waiting to see!

What a happy little family!!! I'm so glad to see my favourite Crown Prince and Princess together. Both seems very happy and proud. Aiko is so lucky to have parents like CP Naruhito and Masako. I can't stop watching those pics. Awesome...

the video was great. I loved seeing Naruhito taking movies, just like any proud father. They are indeed a beautiful family.

Thumbs up

I got to the thread too late to see the videos but I'm so glad to hear that Masako is doing so much better lately. I also appreciate all the people who post news and pics of Naruhito and his family, as it seems here in the States there's not a lot of coverage of them.
