CHRISTMAS 2010

FIRST CHRISTMAS IN THE BUCKET LIST HOUSE..

We are so blessed!!!!

ANGELA, STEVE AND ISABELLE

EVERYONE WILL BE WARM THIS WINTER

The best part..... meeting and getting to know, Isabelle. She is such a precious baby and we are so lucky and thankful we were able to spend time with her..... I hate the fact she will be going back to Seoul and we won't be able to share in all her "firsts"....

MC and I had a wonderful time getting to know our house guest, Sophia. She was going to spend more time with us, but due to difficulties with her Visa, she will be returning with Steve and Angela. She is a very talented artist! She is also amazing.....she was able to carry the painting, beautifully gift wrapped as carry on baggage all the way from Seoul .......not one tear or wrinkle .....

Sophia and Me

PLACE OF HONOR TO BE FRAMED VERY SOON

The days went so quickly.....and before I knew it .....they were gone. They have business and visits in North Carolina and Virginia. On their return , MC and I will meet up with them for dinner before they fly back to Seoul next week.

Last night I was TOTALLY surprised with a belated Birthday Gift. I am now glad I have reached the age of 70!!!! In Korea, living to be 70 is a big event and one is "gifted" handsomely.

Angela wasn't going to let this go by and I was "Gifted" last evening with a wonderful, great, new lap top.......I am writing this blog on it!!! Thank you so very much......What happens at 71?

Now back to our normal day to day existence. With "fresh" eyes from Steve, MC and I figured out a new approach to the design of the built-ins......We think ....even Steve....will think the changes are up to MC's quality of work....
