Another December Update

The Christmas holiday is approaching and we will be flying back to Virginia to spend it with family and friends. We are looking forward to giving everyone their presents and hoping to see some snow (which probably won't happen). In January, Adam will start flying and will be taking a trip to Yuma, AZ with his squadron for about two weeks. He is sure to get some great flights in there and to have a good time. I will be starting two grad school classes around the same time and am looking forward to getting back into the swing of things. The way the program is designed, it will still be a while before I graduate; probably another three years. However, it is so nice to know I am taking classes and working towards a degree, while still being able to work and be a wife.

We have really been enjoying Oceanside and exploring the area. Hopefully we can take some weekend trips before we have to leave. I have family in San Jose and in Las Vegas and we'd love to see them! We have also been fortunate to meet a couple through Officers Christian Fellowship who are trying to get a group started at Camp Pendleton. It is a slow start because so many people come and go so quickly here (like us) and so many others are deployed. But we have seen them every Sunday this month for the lighting of advent candles and fellowship. I meet with Megan, the wife, weekly for a bible study. It's been a great blessing to us out here. We have also met many other couples who will be moving back east around the same time as us. It's nice to know we'll all be in it together and can help each other out.

Not much else to report. We hope everyone has a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
