Zoo Lights!

Last weekend, we went to see the Zoo Lights in Portland with Young-i, Lauren and Joe. We left Cayden with grandparents because it was SUPER COLD, and she wouldn't really appreciate it.
First, we had a lovely dinner at Olive Garden...where Youngs found her new boyfriend (just kidding!). She and Lauren just loved his hair and were brave enough to ask for a pic! Bryan was only a little mortified.
 Then came Zoo Lights. It was impressive, but not really worth $9 a pop. Maybe if you had little kids with you. But we still had fun!
 Especially when we found the sparse animals. This was Young-i in the petting zoo.
 And here's the kids riding wooden horses! Don't mind the random kid in the background....and apparently Joe doesn't like to smile.

I had a baby girl last Tuesday. There was no pushing. No pain. No first cry. I had baby girl last Tuesday, 174 days too early. For nearly 15 weeks, she was ours. We wondered if she was a boy or a girl. I dreamt up new names. I gained 5 pounds for her. I resisted extra caffeine, snuck in naps, and even made Mother’s Day coffee mugs bearing a picture of her 10-week-old ultrasound silhouette as gifts for her grandmas. My mom hollered when she saw the picture, which foretold that her 3 rd grandchild was due the day before Thanksgiving. Then, just a week later, I wept listening to my sweet mother sing to my sweet, breathless 1.5 ounce girl “your little tiny hands, and your little tiny feet…” How does this happen? How does a baby somersaulting in an ultrasound at 10 weeks now lie there perfectly formed, but without a heartbeat just a month later? -------------------------- “Let’s listen to baby,” nurse Glenda told me after taking my blood ...

Blazer mania

This post is a bit late, but I've been swamped at work, so better late than never. So going back 6 months, my mom's dog had puppies. Each of the 12 pups sold for $400 or more, and my parents named them after what they wanted to buy with that specific $400. For instance, one was named Sony, to fund a new TV for their house. Another was named Blaze. The money made when Blaze sold (for $800) went to buying Blazer tickets for our family. My parents bought ten 200 level tickets for the last game of the Blazer's season, against the Denver Nuggets (April 15). So last Wednesday, we piled into the family van, stopped at Jackie and Ed's (Tigard) for dinner and then went to the game. Who went? My parents, Uncle Ed, Bryan and I, Steven, Shane, my cousins Jacob and Blake and Blake's girlfriend Ashley. My mom painted Jacob's face and I painted Shane's, and we all had a great time cheering on the Blazers to a near-30-point victory. The only mild annoyance to our happiness ...

Here are a couple photos that I enjoy. The first one is from a shopping trip with the high school girls at Corvallis Korean Church. We spent 5 hours in Lloyd Center, and if anyone knows me, I was about to DIE. Obviously, they had a great time, as you can see them doing the the typical asian pose...the peace signs (they were kidding by the way). Esther (second on the left) did not want to play along. These girls are awesome, and make me laugh! The second photo is from Shane and Carrie's All-City concert. My older brother, (on right) Steven, came, so we snapped a sibling photo. Guess who needs a haircut? He would make a good Jesus, huh? I also am apparently the only one in my family that can keep my eyes open for a picture. The third is from our Spring Retreat with Corvallis Korean Church in late March.
