Christmas

Merry Christmas from Okinawa! Our first Christmas together. Because Nathan had to run several services on Christmas Day, we celebrated together on Christmas Eve. We received our PCS shipment that I had packed back in Michigan a few days ago, so our presents were placed under a tree made of packing boxes. After opening gifts from each other and family, we headed early to the chapel to set up for the candlelight service.

After Nathan got back from work today, we headed to a small dinner party at the chaplain's house. We spent a peaceful afternoon with close friends, which was the best way to spend the day when away from home.

And it rained all day. That's as close as we'll get to a white Christmas for several more years at least!
