    If a picture is worth a thousand words then this must be worth a ga-million.

    @Doug: You'd be surprised, but there is actually a decent amount of dirt that accumulates here. The fact that the floors are wood instead of carpet undoubtedly adds to the impression.
     
    @Erica: Merry Christmas to you too.
     
    @Celeste: Always happy to make you happy, Celeste :). I miss you (and all our Bethel friends) a great deal. Happy Christmas.
     
    @Jed: Yes, Orangepants' name is Orangepants. You may have noticed that his pants are actually white right now, which we can't help: sometimes he changes pants.
     
    Thanks all, for taking the time to comment.

    Those stockings are kickin', and you're other room has awesome walls.

    Hi, you two!  I don't check in on your blog very often, but this most recent video is a treat.  Thanks for sharing.  Happy Christmas and I love you both.

    Aw!

    Your apartment is so cute! I want to put up a Christmas tree too. I think  we are going to put up our Christmas decorations and lights this weekend. I woke up to a bit of snow this morning!! Winter is here. Love you!

    Nice Christmas tree, and fun to see Sweet Home decorated for Christmas.
    So, Jordan, you have taken up the Souter "manly" custom of vacuuming (your mother says it's also a Furry trait)? Did you say every day? After living in Egypt, how do you find enough of anything there to vacuum that often? :-)

     amazing and very entertaining!

  • September in the Hub   21 weeks 3 days ago

    It must be a really amazing experience teaching in Korea. I read the other post about Star Wars and I laughed with your student's sheet...at least she was honest! (I wish my students were that honest). I teached spanish & tourism in London, I had a great time but yours is better! I couldn't have pets in my apartment :(
    I like your blog very much,keep wrtiting please:)

    I never knew that Luke learned art.  Fascinating.  =)

  • Star Wars (as seen by Korean students)   29 weeks 14 hours ago

    Obviously, Marisa, you are becoming very popular with the students.  Is the student who loves you a boy or a girl? 
    Is Jordan also charming his students?

  • Koreans Write the Darndest Things   29 weeks 2 days ago

    When you talk about "the pearls" your students write and that their use of English is like "magical poetry" - you sound like a teacher - you've found the "soul" of teaching.

    The question about "Croacia" was a joke, because I made a typo in the film, but Marisa's dad pointed out that some people do in fact spell Croatia that way; namely Europeans.

  • Thank You   35 weeks 6 days ago

    I love the colors in that picture.  :)
    I have a package for you, for your birthday, from PNG.  I'm not used to being able to send packages, but will it get to Korea if I mail it? 

  • Quiz Answer: Korea largest consumer of garlic   36 weeks 17 hours ago

    I eat about four cloves of raw garlic a day with my meat.  Im obsessed and stinky.  I feel like I couldnt get away with eating raw garlic daily in the States.

  • Camping in the Rain   42 weeks 1 day ago

    It is $60 per cabin, which is pretty reasonable when you split the cost. And yes, we took our own food.

    • Gorgeous pictures!
    • Loads of laughter
    • Green, green, green

    • no chairs or beds

    I'm just having fun with the formating -how cool is this you tech savvy youngin's! The "camping" or cabining looked like a lot of fun. 

  • Camping in the Rain   42 weeks 3 days ago

    That looks really lovely.  How much does something like that cost? How did you get there? You took your food with you, I presume (other than the ice cream & beer)?

    I guess the answer to your question is see my newest post.

  • Teacher's Day: More Like Teacher's Month   43 weeks 1 day ago

    A question: you are camping in doors?  Why called "camping"?  (And with who?)
    A comment: you should really use your screen time to write a book.  You are a good writer.  Your life itself makes a great series of childrens' books.  :-)

    It's so green and lush! I miss that. And the flowers are gorgeous. Your bright pink coat fits right in. Looks like you had a great time.
