Back in the R.O.K.

Well, here we are back in Seoul. It was so strange coming home to a house without Rachel. We really miss her, but are glad that she's doing so well, and having such a good time with Em and Ben.
We had a wonderful Christmas and New Year's with Chris' parents in Roswell, New Mexico. It was relaxing, we had tons of good food, and as soon as George sends us the pics, I'll post them for everyone to see. My camera is still broken, so we ended up taking a disposable camera, which of course I promptly forgot about as soon as we got there. Oh well... While we were there, we played golf with Chris' parents and grandparents-I was so nervous, since I'd only played one game before and it wasn't all that great, but I ended up playing decently so I wasn't too embarrassed :). Linda taught me how to crochet and I started on a throw. It's getting to be a decent size now-I worked on it on the plane on the way back. We also took a trip to Albuquerque, stayed with Oliver, Chris' brother, and did some serious shopping. We spent 2 hours in Barnes and Noble (2 stories!!!), and 2 days at the mall. We've really missed book stores, and Chris has enough sweaters to fight the cold Korean weather now. Speaking of weather, it was so warm while we were there! And sunny... Of course, we stepped off the plane and it was 12 degrees. Welcome home.
For those of you not in Louisiana, Mom moved into her new house yesterday and Rachel painted her new room. By the way, Happy Birthday EMILY!!!!! Big 23!
I'm gonna have to put some pics up as soon as my camera stops being retarded-Anthony bought us a beautiful Korean lamp for Christmas and brought it over Saturday night, and I'll probably put up a pic of my crochet project as well.
Til next time...

I never thought about book stores being something you miss--of course, they have them, right? But the majority of bks must be in Korean, huh? Do they still have the cafe/bkstore combo there, or is it not like the Amer. chains?
