Ji Seon named Isaac her “snuggle bear” and Victoria her “snuggle bunny.” Dylan suggested that he be called “snuggle hero.”

Northern California Winter
seonghuhn | March 5, 2009 10:34 PMFor the most part I enjoy Northern California winter. In fact I think it might be my favorite season which is the opposite of when I was living in the northeast. There are several reasons why I enjoy it.
- It does not get too cold.
- It is apparently too cold for most other people which is why when you go to the park or any other outdoor place, they are usually somewhat deserted.
- The rain is really welcome since it does not rain at all the other nine months of the year.
- The sun is not so hot so you do not have to wear sun screen.
- It does not feel as busy.
- The landscape is green instead of brown and the mountains sometime have snow on top.
On New Year’s Day Ji Seon and her anonymous friend along with Dylan and Isaac went to Monterey Bay Aquarium. Of course it was raining but the boys had a good time though in Ji Seon’s opinion not good enough to justify buying a season’s pass and driving ninety minutes each way.
With the rain the oranges on the trees ripen. In this photo Dylan holds up a siamese orange I picked from one of our trees.
Isaac and Dylan have really begun enjoying riding. Dylan is still on training wheels while Isaac loves his new Cars tricycle.
Victoria loves being outdoors whether it is raining or not. Here she and Isaac are hanging out in the rain in our backyard.
Isaac loves the movie Cars. When Dylan was young we introduced him to various animated movies but after awhile we thought it would be best for him to watch more educational and less violent things like Wiggles, Peep and the Big Wide World, Thomas the Tank Engine, Bob the Builder, Teletubbies, etc. Dylan still remembers Nemo, The Incredibles, Toy Story 1 and 2 and Monsters Inc. but he never asked to watch them. Isaac never saw any of them.
Recently though at a book fair Dylan bought a Disney Pixar book that had stories from Ratotouille, Nemo, Cars, Toy Story and Monsters Inc. I could tell that Isaac was becoming more and more interested in Cars so when I noticed a friend had the DVD I asked to borrow it.
Since then not a day goes by when Isaac says “I want to watch Cars.” Some days Isaac will watch it three times. It is a good movie because it’s about friendship and not violent. The dialogue is easy for the boys to understand and the boys love the racing scenes and Dylan likes singing “Life is a Highway.”
Now when the boys start watching the movie Isaac yells out “Dylan let’s race!” Then the two of them run laps around the house pretending they are cars on a race track. Sometimes they even make pit stops to get new tires and gas. It’s a good way for them to get exercise.
Now when we are driving Isaac likes to ask “Are we going fast or slow?” Apparently no one told him that his dad always drives slow.
Today Ji Seon bought Isaac a Cars tricycle. It was a little expensive but we knew he’d love it. Plus he outgrew his Radio Flyer tricycle and Victoria needs something to ride.
Dylan accompanied Ji Seon to Toys R Us while Isaac and Victoria were napping. Instead of asking for toys for himself Dylan was really excited about getting the tricycle for Isaac.
Aspirations
seonghuhn | February 22, 2009 7:26 AMIsaac said when he grows up he is going to be a doctor. This is because he likes playing with the toy doctor kit.
Dylan says when he grows up he is going to build houses for people who can’t afford them. He has always loved building things since he was a baby.
Victoria says she is going to just live off of us and never get married. Just kidding, she can’t talk yet.
Best Moments of the Day 8
seonghuhn | January 10, 2009 6:28 PMI have not done this for awhile.
Today the kids and I went to the Farmer’s Market and then we went to a new park, Raynor Park.
Good moments were:
- Watching Isaac and Dylan share popcorn at the Farmer’s Market.
- Seeing the kids enjoy the new park.
But the best moment was seeing how Ji Seon appreciated the time off I gave her. I also enjoyed how much she laughed at one of my jokes. It’s been a long time since that has happened.
Happy New Year!

I spent many, many hours over the past few weeks filtering hundreds of photos, uploading the better ones to my website and using the best ones for our 2009 calendar.
Here are some highlights of the photos I uploaded.

Merry Christmas

I hope all of you had a Merry Christmas. In the morning we opened presents. Dylan and Isaac enjoyed all the GeoTrax toys they received. Ji Seon appreciated all the clothes I bought her though they were the wrong size. You would think I would know what size to buy her after knowing her for almost 15 years. I appreciated the clothes Ji Seon bought me.
Later in the morning we went to Pastor Abel and Annie’s home for a small “Christ Mass”. We celebrated communion, shared what we are thankful for and what we desire for 2009, and prayed for each other. My children, especially the boys, were of course screaming and frolicking the whole time. Victoria insisted on drinking my communion wine which was real wine so I gave her some. I thought she was only going to take a small sip and then spit it out so I had my hand out. Unbeknownst she actually took a few big sips and then spat out everything. I am glad Abel and Annie did not mind the wine stains on their sofa and carpet. Sorry guys! 
In the afternoon we plan on video chatting with my sister’s family and my parents. And then we will call Ji Seon’s parents.
Tonight we’ll be going for dinner at the Law’s house with another GrX family.
Though we are not near our blood family it is nice to have our church family here to celebrate Christmas.
Merry Christmas everybody!
