He's Here!

In front of our home

YAY! Snow!

Just getting off the airplane - looking for us!

Hae min arrived yesterday at 2:55. He was excited and full of energy! We brought him home (he was suprised to see our big our home was - and how we had an upstairs too!) where we helped him to unpack and show him around, then he played out in the snow for a while with the kids. We went to applebees for dinner, but he was so exhausted he kept trying to fall asleep at the table! He ordered a steak with mashed potatoes and steamed broccoli. He seemed to enjoy it. He went to bed as soon as we got home. I awoke to the sound of the phone and it was Hae min awake and trying to call home. He was a bit homesick, but we popped in a movie (transformers - his favorite) and he was doing much better. We've been playing games and computer this morning, but we are going to drive around after lunch and show him some sites in Boise. For breakfast was scrambled eggs with ham, toast & jam and Chocolate Milk! It is hard to tell if he likes the food or not because he says its ok and eats it up. I told him it is ok to tell me if he does not like something. He did try some goldfish crackers, which he said he did NOT like! :o) Tonight we will make Pizza for dinner and let the kids each make their own. ALCE has arranged for us to have full membership at the YMCA while he is here, so we will probably hit the pool this weekend as well! We will also ski and watch them feed the elk up near the cascade area. It is fun trying to think of yummy things to have him try, and we're trying to figure out all the things we want to do while he is here!
