Christmas 2006

Greetings,

Sorry it has taken me awhile to write, but I have been working on this post for the last few weeks. We spent Christmas at my parent's home in Annapolis with my sister, her husband and my four year old nephew Caleb. We had a special visitor arrive Christmas Day. Santa came too, but on Christmas day we were blessed with Jason arriving. He was our best Christmas present.

It was so amazing to reunite Michael with his Daddy. They immediately bonded and in no time were playing catch, chasing each other around the house and of course Michael's favorite game of being thrown up in the air. This reunion was even sweeter because the last time we saw Jason Michael was not walking yet. Jason could not believe how much his little boy had changed, and he is now into everything!

We spent the time together catching up on lost time. This was also Jason's first trip back to the states since he left for Japan in August 2005. Jason's Dad and wife came to visit us here in Annapolis for a few days. As well as, we drove up to visit with Jason's sister and her husband in Philadelphia. It is always nice to catch up with family.

We also received another Christmas present, Jason's orders. He still needs one more signature in order for them to be official, but it looks like we are moving to Jacksonville, FL the middle to end of April. The next few months will go by quickly with coordinating the move and buying and selling our homes. We have to coordinate Jason's move from Japan, my move from Maryland, and arranging to move the furniture we had to put in storage in Pensacola. We are counting down the days.

We hope you all had wonderful, safe holidays. Please take care and write to us when you can.

Love,
Jen, Jason and Michael
