...the long and winding road (I promise this one is it)

I happen to be one of those, "If it's meant to be it will be. If it is supposed to happen it will happen" crazy-kinda ladies!  I really believe God has a plan....we don't know what it is, but it is our responsibility to follow the signs to find the path that God has laid for us.
As you all know, Angel and I have started a new endeavor this year...Fancy Like That! Party Productions.  It is something that she and I have done for...well, forever!  The path was laid for us and we slowly began following it, unknowing of what it would become.  The decision was made by she and I to step off the small, over-grown path and move toward the paved road.
Things seem to be unfolding for us this last couple of weeks, the details of starting a catering company are opening up before us...everytime there is a question, the answer seems to fall in our hands.  Don't get me wrong, this wider road...you know the paved one....sure has it's share of pot-holes and speed bumps, but it is obviously the right path for us.

"My Brudda, DooDah"


For three months, William had been waiting to meet his "Brudda, DooDah."  See, William had some trouble talking, so this was his version of  "brother JooChan." 
This was a miniscule amount of time compared to "DooDah's" Mommy and Daddy...they had been waiting for years.  Always wanting a sibling for Madison, at least one that lived there full time...not like the two daytime siblings she had in Mackenzie and William!  The four kids are a perfect match....a family created by God, intended to be together.  Cousins, sisters, brothers, but more than that....Best Friends For Life!

Davis JooChan Gregory Peck came home to America on July 13, 2006 and was met at the Will Rogers Airport by his full extended family! 
A party ensued after the first meeting....champagne was sabered....and a tradition was born. 

I hope everyone eats a bite of kimchi, a bowl of bibimbop, and ties a beautiful bow on your hanbok....for today is DooDah Day!!

Trying to adjust....

If I've said it once... have said it a thousand times, I am a number 2 pencil in a dot-com world. 

I still use a paper calendar to schedule my days, I use my cell phone only to make calls and maybe the occassional text message, I still enjoying picking up a good book (usually in paperback), and I always begin writing things on paper...before I sit at the keyboard. 

Until now, that is.  I sometimes feel out of place...not having, or wanting for that matter, the latest and greatest technology.  The newest item that is "supposed" to help make our lives easier. It is inevitable that one day...I will have to make the switch. 

Having a pre-teen daughter, I am going to have to learn the "text message lingo."  I will have to finally figure out what "ROFLMAO" means...Ok, I do know that one...but there are several that I turn to my trusted husband to inform me of the definition!  

So, you tell me....what am I missing out on...what is the one invention this world has that will inspire me to put down the #2 and pick up something that requires an adapter?
