Happy almost Chuseok!

They were all so excited this morning! That's James at the table and Julia and Stella twirling around the room.

Things have been busy and not lately, so updates have been slow. Chuseok (which is like Korean thanksgiving) is coming up on Sunday, September 30th and so we are going to have a 5 day weekend in which I am hoping to do some major updates. The pictures in my camera need to be uploaded! I also need to do a recap of our trip to Seoul, which Zach talked about, but I haven't done so yet.

Anyway, the above picture is from this morning when the girls came to school dressed in their traditional hanboks. They had run up to the second floor and were yelling "Man teacher!", trying to get my attention up on the third floor. Not being dressed yet or anything, I hopped out of my pjs and into clothes and went downstairs. I heard Zach talking to them downstairs while I was getting ready and he just said "awwww, you guys are soooo cute!" and then I finally went downstairs to see for myself.

Both of our classes were decked out in hanboks today and they were so adorable. They seem much less complicated than Japanese kimonos, and I think I like them better too. I took tons of pictures today though, so along with the trip pictures and others from recent events they should be going up in posts in the next few days.

In other news, we just got back from our quick trip to HomePlus which was absolutely packed with people shopping for food and gifts for Chuseok. We accomplished our mission of acquiring some alcohol and other miscellaneous food items since places will be closed for a couple of days.
