Merry Christmas! Well, it's been quite the month for us... after enjoying a month long stay in a local hotel, I received the best Christmas gift ever, we moved into our new villa Christmas Eve and I got our car out of the Vehicle Processing Center. Dave had a trip on Christmas day, so we decided to open most of our gift Christmas Eve. However after taking most of the day off to move all our stuff from the hotel to the new house, he had to go into work, so we didn't start opening gifts until about 10pm. We had a great time with our new gifts.

We woke up early on Christmas morning to open our gifts from Santa before Dave left on his trip. He accompanied the Admiral on a visit of four ships. The kids were a little tired from staying up late, but were very excited to be opening more presents.

I am running more than a little late with Christmas cards this year, so expect a New Year Card with our new contact info. I hope your Christmas was merry and bright!!!
