MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!

Hey everyone! Here we are again. Here we find ourselves spending our last Christmas in the US for at least three years. Wow! It sounds to crazy when we say it that way. Anyhow. . . I hope that you all had a wonderful time this Christmas. Things here are going well. The girls got entirely too many presents dispite our efforts to keep it calm this year. They start to get tired of opening presents after the first one. Its still fun though. Sam ans I tried to cook cornish hens for Christmas Eve Dinner. They turned out better than we thought even though we improvised the recipies A LOT!
Overall, it was a WONDERFUL day!

Our first blog

Hi Everyone!
This is so exciting! Our first family blog. I am not even sure what to write! Um okay. . .here we go. So, our life is getting really insane right now. So many things are happening and Sam and I (Dacee) got tired of people getting mad at us for not keeping in better touch. So, here is the ultamite family news letter. Everyone can keep up to date with all the crazyness with our life. Here we go.



December 16 I (Dacee) graduated Nursing School. I now have a Bachlor's in Nursing. I am so excited! I have to take the NCLEX (nursing state boards). It is like the ultamite comprehensive final. I will officially be licenced after I pass. Please pray for me. I am trying not to be nervous. In other exciting news, I got my official navy commission. I am Ensign in the Navy! How cool is that?!?


Sam has reeinlisted in the Marine Corps. He is still an accountant. He is going to school part-time for accounting and buisness. He is taking it slow because we have a big move coming up.


Okay- so. Out official move date to Japan is February 28. We are moving to Okinawa, Japan. There is so much that we have to do, and I am trying hard not to stress. We have to find a house, car, school and nanny. We can do this in 2 weeks right? It is going to be an awesome move.The girls are huge. They are so excited about Japan. They only know that there is a beach there, and that is enough for them. Talk about having Florida blood in them or what!


Okay, so that is it for now. Life ROCKS and God ROCKS! We swear to keep up with this. We will be good. . . . we promise!
