harrison

so we made it to jeonju to visit the kroekers a couple of weekends ago. we had a great time. lots of laughing, eating, playing settlers and enjoying good company. this is harrison, justin and rachel's baby. he was about 5 1/2 months old here. he's so cute and cuddly. i loved every minute of playing with him. even teddy enjoyed a few moments with harrison.

good times

back in january (i think it was anyway!) we finally made it to jeonju (a city about 2 1/2 hrs south of seoul) to visit old friends from our sokcho days. justin and rachel are the couple in the photo with teddy, and rachel is pushing the stroller with harrison snoozing away. we had many good times back in sokcho with justin and rachel, but with this visit it was super fun to meet harrison. he is such a great little guy. hopefully i'll get better photos this time, because we're going for another small roadtrip and visit this weekend! let the good times roll!

i'm still alive!

.....just incase you were wondering......

i can't believe i let my blog get over the 6 month mark before posting again! i hope you check it and that i will be posting more often this year.

the last time i posted was the end of september. i updated most of you in the letters i sent at christmas so i won't go into details about the fall but here are a few photos:

korea has some of the most beautiful fall colors. here is a not so great photo of my favorite.....but you get the idea.

in november teddy and i went to a lantern festival in the center of seoul. here are a few photos
from that:

traditional korean dancers
a line of lanterns going down the canal

beautiful tigers

birds flying over

there were so many people that we didn't dare go down to the canal for a closer look!
i stayed in korea for christmas and we ordered a turkey (99$ for a 4-5kg one!!!) and had friends in for dinner. this was my christmas tree:

the following photo is the spread of food we enjoyed. the turkey was ordered and delivered cooked and then everyone who came brought a side dish.....kind of potluck style. it was delicious.

stay tuned for more updates. teddy and i went to visit his family in mississippi, back in february, and had a great time. it included a resort trip to disney world! with amy! i will post some pictures soon.....
