Extra..Extra..Hear All About It...Pink's the New Black (for men)

I just had to have a picture of this man while I was waiting for Chris and Destinee to go down the hill again, because here not only do men carry purses or "Murses" (man purse) as Chris likes to call them they frequently can be seen wearing a matching pink shirt with their girlfriend and this man just epitomizes the "brave male." Could you even imagine, those who live in America seeing this man walking around the mall!! I think not!!

Bombs Away!!

We recently went sledding at our nearest amusement park, Everland and this was our brave adventurer Dalin going down the huge hill all by himself even though you weren't supposed to at his age..Whoops...we can't understand you what'd you say about him not being able to do that by himself we don't speak Korean....Sorry (hehehehe) Little do they know, huh!!??

My "Special" Child

For my birthday, we went to Chili's here on base,
They brought out a chocolate shake for us to share,
So we tried to offer some to Kyle.
After the first bite, he decided
It would be more fun to play the look away game!
What child doesn't like ice cream?!?

I'm halfway up the hill!!

Well another birthday here and gone,
Chris had to work but his supervisors were nice enough to let him
off early to take me to dinner...
we just brought the brood as well!!

You mean I can BEAT my toys!!??

My little drummer boy

Few more b-day happenings!!

We experimented with our $15 chocolate fountain from the BX and the waterfall "effect" wasn't as smooth as I would've liked but the kids here certainly didn't seem to mind!! Kyle looks so pleased with himself making such a mess.

My "Ducklings" Birthday

So anyway, maybe you can tell the theme of Kyle's party by the pictures....but in case not we had a rubber ducky party and the first picture is a big faucet with the water flowing out of it hung from our ceiling light...and I had shower caps for everybody (even in coordinating blue and yellow colors!!) but Kyle was not too keen on wearing his...next I've gotten into fancy cake baking lately and so when I find them I'll have to post the pictures of all the cakes I've made. We've got a Halloween, and Fallish cake, and then our rubber ducky bathtub cake complete with candy tile floor!!

Some slight backtracking

Well I made the mistake of centering the pictures and not just saying no format so now we've got a big line of pictures instead of a nice block but oh well...anyway we went to one of the many ice rinks this December and let the kids try their luck at a new "sport..." well this was only Chris and Ruth's second time ever ice skating so what would seem we were not in any way ready to be the teachers for the kids and that proved very true for Ruth-but Chris remembered the skills needed I guess or caught on very quickly because he felt steady enough to even take Kyle around a few times..Ruth stopped after about two times around!! Not my thing!! But the kids got brave enough after a few turns to let go and try it on their own as you can see in the pictures.

Asian Stylings

How do you like the new Asian-inspired background?? Since we're never gonna leave here it seems I figured this was the best for the long run view!! Hope you like!!
