We had such a busy week during Korea Camp. We were SO blessed this year by friends. We got to meet and play with Tracy’s (Lower Camp Coordinator) boys for Monday and Tuesday.  They are 6 and 8.  They were really great boys and Ryan enjoyed playing with them. They are really smart and cute [...]

Jan called this morning and my phone was on the counter in the kitchen. I was upstairs bagged out on the couch while Ryan watched WordWorld. I heard the phone ringing, and raced downstairs and missed the call. So I called Dillon back immediately and got through to Jan, who said those precious words “You [...]

I called the NVC on Monday and they didn’t have us in the computer yet. She said to wait a week and then call back. Well, I am not known for my patience So, I called again today. Lo and behold, we were logged in Monday and logged out TODAY. This means our [...]

* Man, there are lots of Koreans there. Seriously. In other large cities, London or Kuwait City, for example, the majority of the population looks native to the land, but there are significant [...]

Finally got some pictures from the trip up. Hit the “Photos” link down on the right side! I’ve also enabled comments on the blog without logging in, so go nuts.

We got up at around 6:30 with Ryan sleeping really good. I actually felt rested when we started our journey home. We got all 5 bags and 1 big box packed into 2 cars and headed to the airport. It was an awkward goodbye as Ryan got fussy and needed a diaper change [...]

We went to bed last night around 11:30, woke up at 2am for first change and feeding, woke up again at 4am for second change and feeding and then was wide awake at 6 am. I finally got some good sleep between 4 and 6. It took me a bit to hear him making noises [...]
