I'm bad

It's been a long time since I've updated this page - sorry to any who actually still visit this place. FACEBOOK has taken over most of my picture loading and such, so I really don't come here much anymore. That being said, I know that some people have an adversion to FB, so I should stop by here once in a while and say what's up.

All is well in Korean and we've weathered the winter fine. My herniated disk has returned and so I was in some serious pain for a bit, but other than that - all is well. In fact, things are pretty good - we've recently discovered a very cool swimming pool close by (15 min drive) and Hannah is loving it (and so is my back).

Anyway, here's my 'serious winter face' just so you can see what I'm looking like nowadays ;)

PS - get on facebook if you're not already.

Move to Canada!

You'll be missed Mom

Summer Movie Reviews 08

Here's my first foray into video blogging... yup, it's sad.

Hannah's first Birthday

Well, our little baby has turned one year old. She's learned to walk on her own, talk a bit (mom and dad in Korean), and made some neighbor friends. We haven't dropped her, forgot her, or fed her anything realy bad... so I I'm guessing there's still moreexcitement to come.

On Saturday, we went out to the 'burbs and had a bit of a family lunch for Hannah. It was good to see everyone together, and it gave me a good chance to practice with my new camera.

The restaruant we went to was really nice (even if the food wasn't). It had a great outdoor area behind it for taking pictures and such.

Hannah's grandparents always enjoy trying to make her more girlish. hahahaha

And here's her first birthday cake.

And all the girls in the family.

In korea, the first birthday is often quite grand and formal. One of my friends spent nearly $10,000 on theirs. I'm not too keen on that. Not only do I not want to spend the money, but I'd rather make the party more enjoyable for the baby.

Hannah's expression here is great. She shows that it's not only me that wants to rebel against old customs. lol

My trip to Canada (2008)

Well, we're back after spending two weeks in the Great White North. It was fun and great to see people, but a tough trip to make with a 10 month old.

I got a new Camera (Sony A200) at the Duty Free, so these pics hsould be a bit better than my old ones.

Vancouver was nice, but a bit chilly for us.

We were able to visit with a lot of my relatives though, and see a little bit of what life in Van would/could be like.

It was good to see everyone, but most of all, I was glad that Hannah got to meet her Greatgrandparents.
A nice shot of some of the family here - I wish we could of had one with everyone present.

Calgary was nice and sunny for the time we were there. Joo was surprised that it could be SOOO warmwith snow still on the ground - I told her, that's just how Calgary is... odd.
Hannah was a bit "off" with my Mom at first (due in large part to my Mom's face being swollen from the medication), but towards the end she warmed up a bit.

This is one of my favorite pics from the trip.

I'm not going to load every picture up here because I'm being lazy and still dealing with jet-lag, but it was great to see everyone again, and of course... it was great to do all that shopping.
