Its my fault....It's all my fault!

I missed the overseas Voting
Registration Deadline
and received this devastating video
from my sister!
Notice that the video is from the future.

Missionaries and Friends

Here in our church we have six missionaries.
We try to have them over about once a month.
Last weekend I made Americanized Mexican food.
In America that kind of meal would have been horrible,
but here my fine cooking/microwaving skills were appreciated.

Friends from church who came to experience the
wrath of my cooking.

More Juny...is there really anything more important than that?

Juny Ju looking all cute after her bath

Where we live there is a shortage of big dogs.
Juny has made friends with the only other big dog that
we have seen in Changwon. Her name is Ya Cha,
she is a malamute. We arrange play dates with her owner
Sung Mee. Sung Mee also has a smaller dog named
Asura.
They like to run in circles when they get together. We went hiking a few weeks ago and found this
Praying Mantis. I was praying too, that it would not kill
me and my dog.

Boo and Juny on our hike.

Every night we come home from work,
to find the bed all messed up. This night it was
especially bad. She knows that she is not allowed up there,
so she waits until we leave to take her nap
on our bed. If you look at the picture up close she looks crazy.

DAVE FLANDRO AS PRESIDENT

So the cat is out of the bag, my dad is running for president. I think he's got a chance!
Remember to vote for him!
New Presidential nominee

BEWARE OF DOG!

Juny Ju sharpening her teeth just in case
she needs to bite you!

She looks a little drunk here.

Juny with her new house. She cries every time we
put her in it. Boo's mom (who I think has
hidden super powers) sent us tons of chestnuts.
She is really little, but the package she sent us
had to weigh about 30 pounds. I am convinced she
is hiding some sort of supper power like the
incredibles from us. If you know of any
nice ways to use chestnuts please let me know.
So far all I know is all the girls in my
family are getting chestnut earrings for Christmas!

Banana Art

For those of you who know me well and the unfortunate ones who
have lived with me you know I have an addiction. I like to call it a
talent. I can eat five banana's a day and not realize it.
I love bananas they are cheap, tasty and always satisfying.
People have gone to great lengths to help me
fight my addiction. Some include writing their name on the bananas
they hope to eat before I got to them. This worked until I forgot what my name
was due to lack of potassium in my body. I could have sworn my name was Allison!
(Sorry Cousin Allison!)
Or my mom would try to hide them, but it became a replay of the hide and seek game
gorillas play at the Zoo. The Gorilla ALWAYS find the banana and so did I!
Anyways here is some Banana art I found on a Korean web site.
Long live the banana!!

The Selby

I have found a new thing to distract me from doing
productive things in my life.
It is called the Selby. It show's pictures of designers, artists and
otherwise eccentric people's homes. One day I will have the
Orange with white trim San Fransisco house of my dreams, or the
Oct angular house in Hawaii with the Ocean in it's back yard,
or the ranch style house in the middle of nowhere Africa, or the Queens
Cosby-style town house, or the Korean High Rise.
One Day......

Our trip to Geoje Do (고재도)

Last weekend was the mythical birthday of Korea. (개천절)
It's believed that that is the day that Korea was placed on the earth.
As for me I am willing to celebrate anything that will get me a day off of work.
We celebrated by going to visit Boo's brother Yong Ha. His wife Jin Ju and their kids Yoe Jin
and Hyung Jun. We ate really good food, stayed at a nice house and had
fun fishing together.

My cute Nephew 형준 watching
the boats in the ocean.

Boo is turning into my dad. It is a little
scary. A few days ago I caught him watching the
fishing channel while practicing tying knots with fishing line.
I think he may be in the process of balding as well.
This was his big catch of the day.

My niece and nephew keeping busy while
everyone was fishing.

This is a cool looking fish that Boo caught.

My beautiful niece 여진

Jin Ju helping Boo put his bait on while we
fished at night.

Getting ready to eat dinner.

The chefs busy at work.

I have a confession to make.
I am no longer a strict vegetarian.
I have been a strict vegetarian for over 12 years.
But I have caved into the delicious sea food of Korea.
I only eat fish, squid and octopus.
I feel like I have betrayed myself, but when I see
Barbecued mackerel it is as if all my
life long standards vanish into
thin air! Umm I want to eat mackerel right now!

Free Foot Massages

I would say the official Korean name for these
kinds of parks, but neither Boo or I know the name
of them.
They are all over Korea. They are great. You take your
shoes off and walk on the path of rocks. All the while receiving
a luxurious foot massage. The shape and size of the rock changes throughout the
path.

This picture of Boo is fuzzy, but you can see the different types
of rocks here.

You can't really tell from the confused look on my face,
but I am really enjoying myself.

Princess Juny Ju

In two weeks Juny Ju will turn four months old.
She is truly a Princess. But no worries because I am still the
Queen!
She has new tricks of: Sitting, Shaking, laying down, rolling over,
chewing door frames, laying on our bed when we aren't at home and
attempting to attack old ladies when they try and greet her.
But the good still out way the bad and our lives are much
more rounded with her in it!

Juny enjoying sitting on human furniture.

Her first day out of house arrest!

Juny and I having a good time at the park we
walk to everyday.
