whatchu talkin' 'bout, willis?

Apparently, Sears Tower (or the Serious Tower as it is fondly called in our family), will soon be renamed as Willis Tower when the insurance broker group moves into the building and takes over. Chicagoans are getting their undies all in a bunch, just like they did when Marshall Fields became Macy's, or when Comiskey Park became U.S. Cellular Field, or when the Standard Oil Building became the Amoco Building before becoming the Aon Center. But eventually, the undies get untwisted and life goes on.

and I would walk 500 miles

Some delayed posting here. My parents had grandchildren withdrawal and decided to come and spend the long weekend with us. Actually, my dad had taken the week off to visit our cousins and some family friends in Little Rock, but decided that they also wanted to visit us. Ok, really the kids. As always, good times were had by all. Since the Korean stores around my parents are not that great, we usually do a round of the stores in Chicago while they are in town and they stock up on things to take home. And my mom usually cooks up enough food for us to eat for days after they leave. The kids introduced my parents to Wii, and we even got Harabuji on the Wii to do a little bowling and archery. Nicholas and Sophia tried to get him to hula hoop, but no such luck there. The weekend went by super fast but we loved that they drove all the way to come see us for such a short time.

I mean, who wouldn't drive 500 miles to see this juicy mug?

Sophia insisted that we take a picture of only the girls. She is big into dividing up along the gender lines these days. And keeping count of whether there are more girls or boys. For this weekend, the girls won. Actually, the girls win everyday in our home.
