Lotte World



mya hoarding her balls. they had this great ball area complete with launchers, air blowers, etc. it was very similar to the children's museum in boston, but BETTER!


claire next to a cute little guy. it really was such a cute place. perfect for all ages.

mya checking out the huge keyboard. they even had drums and a guitar that worked. so sweet. this kiddo is drawn to music. she dances all the time.


claire and mya catching a ride on the rotating flowers. they actually had little rides that constant moved. you just hop on and off. so awesome. the best part is that everything in the area is made of that soft plasticy stuff, so it is completely safe.

claire and daddy catching a ride up the wall and around in their sweet ride.

claire and mya riding their pumpkin stagecoach.

daddy jammin on keyboard with claire on the guitar.


here is a ball launcher. you fill up the table and push a button--the balls fly out. so fun and soft.

here is the Jungle Book area. Every little area related to a children's story. Loved this place.
We took the kiddos to Seoul on Friday evening for a couple of days of R&R. Not really, but a break from the norm. Time away is always nice. We decided to go to Lotte World, which is similar to The Mall of America, but on a much larger scale. The best part of the deal was that it only cost about $10 per person. It was AWESOME!! We will definitely be going back there. I was a bit concerned that being our kiddos are so small in both age and stature that they would be very limited in what they could ride. That was not the case at all. They went on anything and everything their little hearts desired. Thankfully, they both seem to take after me in the thrill/adventure seeking realm as neither of them were too concerned with the heights or scaryness. Chris, on the other hand, wasn't so taken. He did not want to go anywhere near the air balloons. The issue was that by the time we made our way over there, the line was dreadfully long. Another day. The key to our incredible day was that we arrived almost as it opened, so we were able to go on many rides without waiting. However, by the time lunch rolled around, even the merry go round had a long wait. It was a really great day. We wandered through the mall a bit afterwards, but truthfully, we were all so tired, that naps were calling.

I misread it and thought it was Latte World. Sigh, I was slightly disappointed. $10 a head is awesome! And it looks everyone had fun. :)

Yes, indeeedy do. 0.0 is exactly the amount of weight I lost this week. Irritating! Here's the breakdown: number of times I cheated on my diet--ZERO! number of times I worked out--FIVE!! (running, no less). Now that is a mean, mean slap in the face. After I picked myself off the floor and resisted the urge to throw the scale through my window, I've come to realize that it is time to call in the big guns. There will be no messing around. Through a very valuable (HA!--sense the sarcasm) inservice this year, I've learned that I am "Green," meaning logical, research based, problem solver, mathmatical thinker. I am applying the same thought and strategy to my 'get fit' adventure. There will be no relying on the treadmill to tell me how much I've burned. That thing lies, LIES, LIES!! Take for example, the fact that each time I worked out, I burned at least 300 calories--most often 350, my pulse was around 87 (which is pretty much a near death resting ...

Bouncing Crazyiness!

I do alot of online shopping. When you live overseas, you have to. The BX is thrilling, yes, but it changes out the merchandise only so often ;) When it comes to clothing, if you shop at the BX (which I do as well), you can be guaranteed that at least 3 other people will be seen in the same item. Take for example this little gray vest that I bought. The other day, 2 other teachers showed up in the same one. Thankfully, I hadn't worn mine that day, but you get the point. Anyway, several places do not ship overseas. That's where my Mom comes in. I typically have the stuff mailed to her house and she graciously mails it to us. Readdressing the boxes, running to the post office and mailing our stuff is a major pain. I know this, but she's been so great about it. Priority mail is the way to go. She generally mails it priority and we recieve it in a week to ten days. However, I ordered a "jumpy jump" as Claire calls it, well before Christmas. Since it was so heavy and s...

my workout playlist

I never dreamed I'd be listening/watching this when I worked out, but it is true. Here it is: photo courtesty of Laurieberkner.com I wouldn't have it any other way. My little healthy lifestyle journey is going well. I have exercised 7 days thus far which consists of treadmill activity and an ab workout every other day. I don't pressure myself to run everyday, but I have run 4 of the 7 days. I am quite proud of that. I have never been a runner or enjoyed running, but I have grown to like it. I used to say that I had exercise induced asthma! I think I did, but maybe I outgrew it? ha. Whatever the reason, I am finding it pretty easy to run and maintain a steady pace for no less than 20 minutes each time. Pretty impressive feat for a girl like me. Interestingly, I had planned to take today off, but didn't. I actually had the desire to run. Chris and I are both sticking to the eating plan as well. So far I am down about 4 pounds. Although 4 pounds is plenty, it ...
