From Stanwood to Seoul: And we're back!
http://stanwoodtoseoul.blogspot.com/2015/07/and-were-back.html
Friday, July 31, 2015. Well, people, we've been home a week now, and what a week it has been! You would think that after doing this for four years, we'd have things figured out by now.or that at the very least it wouldn't be this. Difficult. But no, it's still hard. Made harder by the fact that we expect it to be easier. You may remember that after school got out, and after our trip to Jeju, but before our flight to the States.we moved! Oh boy, was that crazy! Anyway, the point is that from our new apart...

From Stanwood to Seoul: The Trip
http://stanwoodtoseoul.blogspot.com/p/trip.html
This is one of my favorite photos from my spring break mission trip to the Riau Islands of Indonesia in 2012. Eric got to make the same trip in 2014, but his isn't as well-documented. It was an incredible experience, and I'm so blessed to have had the opportunity. The smiles on these faces and the light in their eyes is something you don't find just. Want to read more about it? Here are the posts about my trip:. Day 3: Jungle Hike. Day 4: Low Ropes Course. Day 5: In the Village. Day 6: In the Village.

From Stanwood to Seoul: Reece at 9 Months
http://stanwoodtoseoul.blogspot.com/2015/08/reece-at-9-months.html
Friday, August 7, 2015. Reece at 9 Months. Well, we're another week down. This last one was one of those let's-just-get-through-this weeks. If we hadn't had air conditioning, I don't know if we would have survived! He hasn't slept through the night every night, by any means, but it's usually only one wake up, if there is one. Worried about how much work I was going to have to put into getting him to take 90 minute naps again after his irregular napping over the summer, but that has been much easier than ...

From Stanwood to Seoul: Cade's Potty Training continued...
http://stanwoodtoseoul.blogspot.com/2011/11/cades-potty-training-continued.html
Wednesday, November 16, 2011. Cade's Potty Training continued. The potty training venture continues, of course. We've finally seen some success in the last week, though! He was asking to go to the bathroom after he'd been put to bed just so he could get an M&M. Smart kid! His special reward was a "Mater" truck I had picked up a month or two ago. We are so excited! He still isn't asking to go to the bathroom, but we have definitely begun moving in the right direction! What a relief- no pun intended! The t...

From Stanwood to Seoul: The Last Day of School
http://stanwoodtoseoul.blogspot.com/2015/08/the-last-day-of-school.html
Sunday, August 9, 2015. The Last Day of School. Oh, did you think that said "first" day of school? Well, I can see how that would make sense, but no, in the world of behind blogging, one must blog photos from the last day of school before one can blog photos from the first day of school. But aren't they cute? So, enjoy a few pictures with just a few words. And remember that when these pictures were taken last year, I was packing up our apartment to move, getting ready for our trip to Jeju, and getting re...

From Stanwood to Seoul: May 2015
http://stanwoodtoseoul.blogspot.com/2015_05_01_archive.html
Saturday, May 30, 2015. Michael and Nancy's Visit. I suppose when you consider the fact that this is only the second post since Reece's 6 month post and it's now time for his 7 month post, it's clear I'm not doing a very good job at keeping up with everything here. But, our house is somewhat clean, I'm still continuing to sort and pack, and dinner is on the table every night, so we'll consider that a success at this point! This is the last week of school, and Eric and the kids are so excited. I'm excited...

From Stanwood to Seoul: Christmas Creativity
http://stanwoodtoseoul.blogspot.com/2011/12/christmas-creativity.html
Thursday, December 1, 2011. Yesterday the kids and I did the traditional Christmas project. Cade thought it was the perfect opportunity to look like a ninja. Kennedy was more than happy to brag about her expertise in chain making, having perfected the skill last year in preschool. And I was more than happy to take pictures of the experience! Because it's important for all of us to feel creative, right? December 2, 2011 at 8:47 PM. So, so cute! Your pictures are beautiful! December 22, 2011 at 7:36 PM.

From Stanwood to Seoul: The Story
http://stanwoodtoseoul.blogspot.com/p/story.html
Meet the Carlsons: two teachers who have always wanted to move overseas and teach in a different culture, decided that now (with their four year old daughter and two year old son in tow) was the time to do it. Follow their path from Stanwood, Washington (population 6,000) to Seoul, South Korea (population 10 million). Thanks for stopping by! Posts to check out:. How it all began.

From Stanwood to Seoul: First Week of School
http://stanwoodtoseoul.blogspot.com/2013/08/first-week-of-school.html
Wednesday, August 14, 2013. First Week of School. Our new routines were interrupted this week for Korean Liberation Day, which is typical of our first week back to school. No one complains about a break, as we try to get back on track in the new school year! Two years ago,. We were adventurous. Last year. Eric still hasn't been feeling great, so our anniversary celebration last night consisted of leftovers (I wasn't about to cook a meal that no one was going to eat again! Really is disgusting.". I'm glad...
