Fun from Spring Break

 The boys had Spring break last week

 At Huddle House
 Doing a puzzle Amah gave us
 David had an audition in Columbia as part of a contest. His audition was early in the morning so we went up a day early and spent the night at a hotel. The boys loved it.


Swimming at the hotel pool.

 David in line to receive his participation certificate (scores are sent out later)
 David and his piano teacher



 That day we went to Edventure, a children's museum. Here everyone is playing a game projected from the ceiling onto the floor.





 Ready to go home









Happy Easter

Blast from the Past (From Korea)

Arlene reminded me that I should try and find some of the old videos I made from when we were in Korea. I found these two and thought that they might be worth sharing:
David having fun in our apartment

Having fun in Korea outside of our apartment

All these videos are from 2008 to 2009 while Arlene, David, and I were in Korea during my Fulbright year. These particular videos are from when we had a conference on Jeju Island.
