Logan's Piano Recital

Logan has been taking piano for almost 2 years now!! He works very hard and the best part is that he LOVES it! He has a Korean teacher this year who has done very well with him. He plays with two hands now and is getting into some really cool stuff. They are having a recital this year here at Yongsan, but we will have already moved by then and he will miss it. So, we decided to play the song that he would have played at the recital and share it with everyone via the World Wide Web!!! Enjoy!

My cuties!

Seriously? Could these two get any cuter? I know I am a bit partial...but, come on!! They got these ears in an Easter goodie box from my sister. They wear them, like, every day! They just put them on and go about their business playing! It's too cute!

Logan's 7th B-Day

Logan is 7!! I can't believe how fast these last seven years have gone. Okay, well...the first 2 went slower than molasses, but the last 5 flew by!!! He is just getting so dang big! He had just a few friends over. They ate pizza, opened presents and then Matt took them all bowling! Logan doesn't really like the big loud parties with tons of kids. So, this was exactly what he wanted! He wanted a Spongebob theme, so I made him a Spongebob cake. He has very generous people who care about and love him, so he also had presents come in from all over the United States. He (and we) is very lucky!

A grill only a mother can love!!!!

Logan finally lost his last baby tooth!!! He was so dang excited when it came out.....at 3:30AM!! He came into our room and shook me saying "Mom, it's out! It's out!!" So, under his pillow it went last night and the tooth fairy left him $20!! Yep, that's right...$20! We figure it is because it is his last baby tooth. Logan is already talking about how he can get braces once all his teeth grow back in. Poor kid......but with all the great traits he inherited from Matt, I'll take the crooked teeth gene along with all the good ones!! Our little boy is growing up :(

Logan and The Korean Soccer League

Logan and the Tiger Scouts got to participate in a very special event this past weekend. They got to go to a Korean soccer game and walk out on the field with the players as part of the kick-off to the season here. It was a Korean televised event so Logan is kind of famous now!! :) The Scouts got to sit in the box section where they were given lots of food and snacks and drinks. They were treated like royalty by the league!! It was a great opportunity for our kids to experience this culture a bit more!

Oh Lincoln!

It was bound to happen sooner or later......Lincoln is absolutely our kid that pushes the envelope. We were in the playroom sitting at the table. He was coloring nicely with a pen..ON PAPER!! I left the room to fill my coffee cup. When I got back, there is Lincoln drawing lines on his arms. He just stared at me. I promptly took the pen away and told him that it was naughty to write on yourself. Of course that caused tears and screaming. As soon as I got the camera out though, that little ham calmed right down. He posed nicely for the photos and went back to playing. After a minute, I again said Lincoln "Why would you draw on yourself? That's not okay." He looked at me, walked to the wall, pointed at a nice pen spot drawing and said "Wall too!"

Seriously?

Snowy Days in Korea

The Kmon family has a love of snow. I'm not afraid to say it!! So many people hate the stuff while we do a snow dance when there is just a chance of a dusting! We love the cooler weather and seeing all of our surroundings covered in the fluffy white stuff. So, before we moved to Korea, we checked on the climate to see what winter had to offer. All of the websites told us that winter was bitter cold with little to no snow. We were disappointed, but happy to at least experience some cold days again. Well, the first week of January brought a surprise for all of South Korea. The biggest snowfall in 50 years!! We were happy that it happened on our watch!!
