So bad!

I am so bad with blogging!! Not having a computer puts a damper on keeping up with this. Tons of things have happened since I last wrote. But I'll start with today. Today I did the kids Thanksgiving photos. They aren't as great as previous years. We don't have the beach in Guam, or our awesome back yard from Las Vegas. So these will have to make do! Plus I couldn't find our rubber chicken that's in all pics usually. But still cute!

A few days ago I ordered a mini garden flag for Mimi that says happy thanksgiving to my grandma on it and she got it today. She loved it! Miss her. 

Team OSAN spouses club business fair

The team Osan souses club business fair was yesterday at the officers club. Carly and mom had fun! We made $85 in sales, met a few ladies and hopefully built up some clients! 

I think my table looked great! Other tables were very sparse but mine was full and colorful. 

We sold bows and necklaces, and had a lot of compliments! 

Half marathon training

Carly potty training

Carly has been so good with potty training. Yesterday her and mom went to the bx and she got a stuffed fluttershy pony and pony blind bag and was beyond thrilled! 

We also picks up a waffle maker and camping lantern. Then we went food shopping and she pushed her own cart the whole way through the store.

Then we stopped at dads work while he was out and left him some goodies! She was so excited about this! 

Seoul day 2 part 2

After our trip to the tower we went back to the hotel and all 3 kids napped for little more than an hour. 

We walked around and found a pizza place for early dinner.

We walked around more. And mom just had to try this poop bread/cake thing that's popular here.

It's a pastry with chocolate in the middle. 

We walked a ton. Stopped at a fortress, stopped at a park on the way back and walked almost 8 miles today! Our kids love walking and are such troopers! 

Carly got a little Korean flag on the way back and got so much attention from it!

Seoul day 2 part 1

Day 2 started off with breakfast. First thing we did was walk to the cable car lift ride at the Seoul tower. The lift took us up a steep small mountain (with an amazing view!) up to the base of the tower. 

At the base of the tower is where you can put a lock, have awesome views of the city and grab some snacks. 

Dad got the kids a popcorn and drink combo with the admission ticket. Great hot and kept them happy and entertained. 

We hung out at the top for a while. Had se snacks and dad got a beer while kiddos played.

We took the cable car back down and walked back to the hotel for a power nap. 

Mini Seoul vacation day 1

We left Saturday morning early by bus to yongsan post. About an hour bus ride. Easy. Once we reached post, the downpour of rain began so we got something to eat and walked around the px before getting a taxi ride to our hotel. Awesome hotel right at the base of Seoul tower!  We hung out until the rain let up and then started exploring! 

The kids got massive tall ice creams comes for only $2 each. 

We walked a ton and decided dinner would be off of various street food vendors. Caden got honey butter corn on the cob.

Dad got meatballs.

Carly and Kayla shared fries. 

Mom got an egg on bread.

We also has treats later. Dad got a rolled up pizza come and girls shared watermelon drink and gimbab rolls. 

Great fun day. We walked a little over 7 miles! 

Caden's 1st day of school

Caden's first day of kindergarten is today! Can't get over he is old enough for this now. He was very excited! 

Moms half marathon training update

Half marathon training week 7 day 3!! Almost half way through this training! Yay me! Fingers crossed I make it past the 10 mile run this time. This humidity in Korea makes it really hard some days. Even though I run indoors on the treadmill...ac here is not like what us Americans are used to and spoiled with. 

Anniversary coming up!

13 years married this month. Went from 15 and 18 year old (kids) dating couple, to engaged 2 years later and married 5 months after at 18 and 21, to 3 kids later. It's been an awesome

Journey that I would not change at all! -

(PS. You better not read any emails from Amazon!!! Hehe!) 

Kayla is 7!

Can't even believe it! 

7 years. 

Our answered prayer. Our first miracle baby. 

School soon!

Today mama took her Korean drivers test and passed with only 3 questions missed and 90%. So dad dropped us off at home and took his scooter to work. Boy that is funny! 

So mom and kids went to register Caden for kindergarten and then went school shopping.

School shopping for 2 kids for kinder and 2nd grade cost $115. We forgot 2 items on our list. We got: 2 pencil boxes. 3 folders. 2 binders. Twistable crayons. 2 packs of glue sticks. Colored pencils. 3 packs of erasers. 1 pack of markers. 1 pack water color paint. 1 pack of highlighters. 1 pack of crayons. 5 composition books. 2 spiral notebooks. New outfit for a girl which was a chosen skirt and top. 1 new chosen shirt for the boy- captain America, for the first day. 2 packs of underware. 2 packs of socks. 1 pack of girls cami tops, 1 pair of pants for Kayla, and 1 pair of new shoes for the girl. The boy didn't get new pants or shoes and this was still all $115. 

After all that mom got the kids a pizza to share for lunch and had playtime at the bx food court playground. Not a bad day. 

Busan South Korea day 3

Day 3 started with mom sticking with her half marathon training schedule. 60 minutes of cardio! With beach views!

Then it was breakfast time. Again with beach view! 

We decided it was a good day to check out the subway system and with the help of a Korean lady who spoke zero English, dad figured it out. We took the subway about 5 miles away, about a 10 minute ride to a mall. The day prior we drive over an hour because of traffic to get to it and it was closed. 

Carly fell asleep during the walk to the subway and missed the entire ride and woke up in the mall. 

Kids weren't too trilled on the way there but had more fun on the way back since they got to sit down. 

They had Krispy Kreme doughnuts for a snack at the mall and after we got back it was beach time of course even through drizzles of rain. 

After relaxing for a bit dad went for a run along the entire beach.
