Wordless Wednesday

This "Wordless Wednesday" is devoted to our fall open house that was performed a few weeks ago.  The drama for fall semester was the "Rabbit and the Turtle."  Yes, yes I know.  The proper title is "The Tortoise and the Hare" but the kids couldn't pronounce those words correctly and the rabbit is first in the title because he is the fastest.  This is Korean logic, not my own.  I hope you enjoy the addition of a monkey, squirrel, giraffe and bear to the play.  They really take this classic tale up a notch.

Pileup!

Prince was getting annoyed at Matthew for not being able to
keep time.  Drums are hard when you're 5!

The rest of the kiddos with their xylophones, castanets,
tambourines and even a triangle.

Wordless Wednesday

First and foremost, happy birthday to the best mom a girl could ask for.  I hope it is amazing and just remember that in exactly one year from today I will be in an airplane on my way back to you.  I love you.

So, a few weeks ago, myself and a few friends decided to find a little culture around Korea.  We had gotten into a rut of doing the same thing weekend after weekend.  Dinner.  Bars.  Sleep.  Dinner. Bars. Sleep.  It gets old so we made a pact with eachother that we will visit a new cultural place in Korea once a month.  Here are some pictures of our trip to Andong, Korea.

Again with the fall scenery

In Korea, a picture just isn't a picture until a Korean wants in it
