6 May - 12 May

Boy, last week was so boring - nothing to do, but just sit.  The office elders and assistants were all gone with the President to Zone Conferences.  So besides English class, we just sat in the office and watched conference or listened to music.  I hope we don't have too many of those kind of weeks!!!

Well, Happy Mother's Day everyone!  We hope you have a great day!

This week in Korea is "Lantern Festival".  A lot of the places hung lanterns outside their businesses and churches.  This is at the top of the hill Wayne and I walk at lunch.

It was also Children's Day on Monday.  All the children had no school.  Then on Wednesday it was Parents day.  The Elders were so sweet.  They got Wayne a new tie and they bought me some little ducks - two of them.  It is a tradition here that the married couples put the ducks on a shelf for all to see.  They place them facing each other, but if one spouse is upset with the other, then one of the ducks is placed facing away from the other.  So I guess everyone will know if there is harmony in the home for that day.  They also bought a little vase with flowers and a small bottle of  incense.  Our office smells very nice.


On our walk Saturday, we saw a crane in the river.  Had to take a picture of it.
By the way, we walked 14 miles on Saturday.  I wish I was losing weight, but I guess it would help if I stopped eating, too.

Well, that's about all.
We love you and miss you all.
