Well this weekend I'd hardly know I was in Korea. Our best friends here, the Hamiltons, Kris, Cliff and their three daughters MacKenzie, Madison and Kira came up from Busan and stayed with us. It was a fun American pastimes filled slumber party.
We ate on-post, took the kids bowling and decorated cupcakes in the spirit of Halloween.
Sunday morning Kris and I snuck out on a field trip to Costco!! But for the addition of Korean products, it's pretty indistinguishable from Costco back home; samples to taste, organized in the same layout. Getting there Sunday morning we avoided any large crowds. You can even buy hot dogs and pizza at the concession stand just like at home! My exciting purchase of the day was a large box of Rice Krispy Treats.
The weather here is still warm in the upper 70's. A neighbor delivered a large bag of crispy apples to us last night, just when I was missing our traditional apple picking this time of year. The leaves are beginning to change colors. Benjamin's school just wrapped up Homecoming festivities. Sometimes things don't seem so different, at least for instance this past weekend.

You guys are the best. Thanks again for a wonderful weekend! Here's to many more memories to make.
Love, Kris
Hey Jenny, Eddie, Benjamin and Sadie!
I miss you all tons and wish I could be hugging all of you right now, but wow! Korea sounds like so much fun. It sounds like there are many families that have taken the leap of faith like you all. Hopefully I will be able to make it over to see you all.
Jenny, I miss all of your yummie meals! That brisket of yours right now is sounding mighty tasty :)
Happy Sukot!
Love,
Auntie Katelyn
Too much fun. Upon your recommendation we went to the bowling alley tonight to try the food. Blast! We walked right past the restaurant and ordered from the burger place thinkin that was the restaurant you were referring to. Opps! We'll have to try the real place later.
