Pizza Hut and Parties

On Susanna's actual birthday, I took her and Caroline to Pizza Hut for supper. The pizza was very good, although they did put sweet potato in our cheese-stuffed crust. We also got Mountain Dew (quite rare around here). It's nice in Korea because you only have to order one drink to share with three people - and free refills, too!

We walked to Pizza Hut; here is a picture on the sidewalk with a giant sycamore and the lights of the city in the background.

They even bring you three straws :)

Saturday, we again used a birthday as an excuse to have all the high schoolers over. We played Ultimate Frisbee for a little while, but I think we've decided our competitive love for sports is not generally shared by the people here. We had fun playing games, though. Generally, I think Koreans just go to a movie or karoke room for birthday celebrations so I often wonder what they think of our "wild" parties.

The funniest comment all day was a question about how many bones Susanna has broken. "Susanna, how many foot fingers have you broken?"

Dress-up relay: I wasn't sure how this would work with 20 high schoolers, but it ended up being highly entertaining

Cute hat, Gabe

Susanna and Stephen would both make great runway models.

Singing together. Dad shared "Take Me Home Country Roads" with them. Not sure what they thought :)
