lunar break

Korea celebrates the Chinese Lunar New Year, so two weeks ago (man, we're behind on blogging!) we were off for a week.  We felt pretty spoiled because we had three weeks off for Christmas, taught for two weeks, and then we had another week off.  It's one of the perks of living in Asia, I suppose. 

We decided that since we traveled a lot over winter break (New Zealand was incredible) that we should have a stay-cation in Korea.  We had a relaxing break that included the Mac Meltdown, E's 6 month check up, and visiting Seoul.  One of the places we checked out in Seoul was Times Square, which is the biggest shopping mall in Korea.  The mall was built in 2009 so it has a new, fresh look to it.   

 This picture is a bit over-exposed; it makes Everett look like he's in a sci-fi movie:

 We also went to our favorite breakfast diner, Butterfingers.  The server insisted Everett have something to drink so we thought we'd give it a try.  He used a straw for the first time with some success. 
One of our favorite things to do with Everett is to go hang out at coffee shops together.  He usually takes a decent nap while we're out and about.  Here he is crashing at Starbucks. 
 Bedhead!!!!
 Going for a stroll.  We got a cover for his stroller with Christmas money (thanks Grandpa Meyer and Grandma Jean) so he's nice and cozy in there. 
 E's snowsuit.  So cute...
We're sure going to miss having a Lunar Break when we're back in the States next year!
