Just a few pics from our Saturday outings...


This is a pic of a "parade" of some sorts that randomnly came down the main street of the Insadong market while we were shopping today. The little boy in the cart was towards the end of the parade and the only one with a "ride" so we guess all the fuss was about him. Rusty said maybe it was his birthday. :O)


Our first Korean meal in Seoul...yum!
We ate at Shinpo Korean Restaurant, I ordered the sugogi busut bokkeum woo dong...delicious! It was a beef and veggie noodle dish.


Rusty had bimbim bab...it's really good, too. It was a fancier version of the bimbim bab we had on the flight to Seoul. You also recieve different side dishes to share with your meals here. One of the side dishes was kimchi (fermented cabbage) and Rusty got to try it for the first time. It really isn't bad...just different.


Our school girl friends...
These are the girls that practiced their English on us. They were very cute and fun...and we all laughed A LOT!







Well, it's 10:00 pm here on Saturday night and I think we're about to venture out a little bit. The time difference is still messing with us...we HAD to take a nap this afternoon and slept longer than we thought we would. We want to stay up a little bit later tonight so maybe we can help our bodies adjust to this new time schedule. We are going to attempt to go to a HUGE church here in Seoul tomorrow morning. We'll just have to figure out how to get there via the subway.

Huston--Mommy and Daddy love you SO, SO much and miss you already! We will be bringing your sister home soon. Be sweet, obey and have LOTS of fun! Don't forget to open a present!

Hughes family--we're wireless in our room...thank you for letting us borrow the laptop! It's wonderful!

Friends and family--keep praying and we'll be posting again soon! Miss y'all and love y'all!

Looks like you are having a lot of fun, but know it will only be complete once you get to actually hold Mia! Huston loved the pictures and had to tell us about them (as if he knew first hand!)
He is doing great. He never would settle for a nap today with all that was going on around him so went to bed tonight one tired little boy! He has big plans to go fishing tomorrow after lunch so do hope the weather cooperates with him.
Love you and miss you! Can hardly wait for you ALL to be home.
Nana, Anpaw, and Huston
