2 Months down and 22 more to go...

Wow I can't believe that I have been here 2 months today! Also, three years ago today Robert and I started dating. Wow a lot has changed in three years! Since my last update we had another snow day, we celebrated Valentine's Day, I went shopping in Myeongdong with some girlfriends, and we went to Saint Barbs Ball is Seoul. We have had a lot going on lately! I finally feel like I am beginning to establish more of a routine but all of these three and four day weekends that Robert has been getting have kind of thrown me off. He had his last one for a while this past weekend so yesterday was sort of the begging to a fairly normal week with the exception that I had to take Mia to the vet in Yongsan which took up a good portion of the day!

For Valentine’s Day we decided to venture to the nearest Outback Steakhouse! It was about a 45 min drive and it was worth the trip. It wasn't as good as in the states but I am sure we will be going back sometime soon! That Monday, one of my friends Katie invited me to go with her shopping in Myeongdong. While we were there we went to a Forever 21, Gap, and some other stores that are similar to stores in the states. It was neat while we were in Forever 21 I saw more American in one place than I have seen the past couple of months besides when we are on post. I was even able to find a couple of cute tops that fit!! I am sure I will be going back! Yet, again American brands are very expensive here so it is better to order online than try to find things in stores here. This past weekend we had our Saint Barbs Ball and it was held at the Seoul Plaza Hotel. The hotel was beautiful!! The whole day leading up to the event was all a huge mess and looking back on it all I should have just stayed home!! I got sick from something I ate and the evening did not end well for me! Huge disappointment but as Robert said we have more balls to go to! We didn't get a single picture together but oh well!! Moving on! Mia is growing so fast! She now weighs 5.3 lbs!! We are having a lot of fun with her as long as she is sleeping through the night! I hope everyone is doing well!

Below are some pictures that we have taken here and there! Nothing much!







This was our snow day and also during the days that I was sick. Go figure I got sick right after all of the certification classes were over and things started to settle down. Luckily I was able to fight it off fairly qucikly but there were a few days where all I wanted to do was sleep!










I also wanted to add that the next few pictures are the view from our bedroom and they were also taken right after the snow. These were taken by Robert!











We were sitting in the car in traffic at this point on Valentine’s Day. Robert wasn't to excited about sitting in traffic. It was keeping him from getting to Outback!





These were from my shopping trip and for anyone that really knows me knows that there are two places that I have take pictures of Gap's and Starbucks! I have now visited Gap's in two other countries!!







The aftermath of dinner! Katie and I made a pizza!





19 Feb 2010 - Saint Barbs Ball
Mia was enjoying sitting in the car on the way there! Also, don't let that pretty little treat fool you! It didn't taste that great and who knows it might have contributed to me getting sick moments after eating it! Also, our beautiful view from our hotel room in Seoul!
