Scott and Juliet Visit

Scott and Julie came to visit us last weekend. Here are some of the photos.

 Everyone loves Scott

 "Bowling"

Chick-fila. John really liked Kylie. He cried a lot when she had to leave.

February Fun

 The Museum had a special opening for an exhibit on "Promised Land," a community of former slaves set up after the Civil War. I brought the Koreans and the boys. The people in the front are singing Gospel music to open the exhibit.

 David doing math.

 They had a nice buffet dinner, all gluten based of course.

 Our Korean students enjoying southern cooking

 We got a special tour of the downstairs

 Typewriters are more fun with two

David in Columbia

On Saturday mom and dad drove us all down to Columbia for David's recital at the convention center

 David with his fellow students.

 David with more of his fellow students.

 David and Aina before the recital (he often does duets with Aina and she and her family attend our parish. It was playing piano with her at a parish Christmas party that got us into piano in the first place).

 Finally, a smile!

Now that the semester has begun again, things have been getting rather busy, so I'm just putting up an update with some of the little things we have been up to.

 The boys at Zhen's birthday party (his father is a colleague of mine). It was held at the "Fun Factory." We had a good time.

 Over break we did a lot of puzzles. This is 350-piece one.

 500 pieces.

 This wasn't that many pieces, but round puzzles are tough.

David playing a song at his piano lesson.

 There was a piano contest at Lander. We were very happy because David was selected to go to state.

 We took our friendship family students bowling. John was happy however he did. David did pretty well.

Everyone, including John, got a strike but me!
