The Choi Family: Happy 2013!

After a month and a half without internet, we're finally "connected" again! A lot has happened since my last post, so I will try to briefly fill in the gaps. On November 30, we moved to a new flat (same neighborhood, just about a mile down the road). We really love it here. It's bigger, brighter, and most importantly, smoke-free (we were having issues with second-hand smoke coming in through our bathroom vents at our old flat). Oh, and it's right upstairs from the kids' club, so it's an ideal location for us, especially during these cold winter months.

Shortly after our move, we left for California for the holidays. Chris was there for about 2 1/2 weeks and Nathan and I got to stay for about a month. As always, the holidays were a bit hectic, but it was really nice to spend time with family at Christmas-time. Overall, we had a wonderful trip and it was so great to be able to spend time catching up with friends and family who we hadn't seen in six months. It was also really nice to enjoy some warm wether in the middle of winter.

When we came back from California, we arrived to a blanket of white. Although it was quite a change from the California sun, we had lots of fun with our first "snow weekend." Nathan especially loved throwing snowballs!

The snow didn't stick around too long though and this past weekend was actually really pretty and warmish (a high of around 47 degrees). So, we took full advantage and had a family date day. We took Nathan to the London Eye and got a bird's eye view of London. I was a little nervous that he wouldn't like it and we would be stuck for a half hour in a capsule above London with a kid who was whining to get off. But, he loved going up in the "bubble" and looking down at the water and trying to find our "home" from way up there.

Here are some pictures from the last couple of months. Now that we have internet again, I promise it won't be so long between posts. Happy New Year everyone!!
