New Year's Eve

Chuck and I usually don't do anything for New Year's Eve. To be quite honest, the thought of being on the road with all the drunks frightens me! As in years past, we made a great dinner - steak, wilted salad, etc. - the unlike years past, we had company. My best friend, Barb, and her husband, Chris, came and spent the night with us. They had been down here in Florida visiting her family for the holidays and decided to detour to Panama City on their way back to Virginia. Yes, Panama City is a little out of the way for them, but the came to see us anyway. It was so GREAT to see that girl! I miss her like crazy!!! And even though they only stayed one night and we didn't quite make it to mid-night, we had a great time with them. We drank mimosas, ate brownies and chatted all night. And yes, the boys were here too... I was sad to see her go the next morning, but am certainly grateful we had some time with her.

Newest Flight Commander

Early in December, Chuck finally became a flight commander. I am not 100% sure what that means other than him getting his own office. I know that he is now responsible for several pilots that are coming through the TX and the B course - keeping them on track, helping them with issues, etc. I know for many, it probably doesn't mean much, but he was really excitted to finally be a flight commander as he has been wanting this responsibilty for a long time. I know that this means responsbilities for me as well, but I haven't figured out what those are yet. I think it will be mainly being another support system for student wives... greeting them when the arrive here, helping them with the moving process. Not sure, but will certainly let you all know.

Schuck Family is back...

So obviously if you keep up with our family blog, you probably have noticed that my posts have fallen off in the last month. Let's be honest! With all the Christmas happenings keeping our blog caught up was not high on my priority list. Now I am certainly paying the price because I have a month to get you all caught up on... So over the next few days, I will do my best to get everyone caught up on what has been happening with Addie and her parents.

Also, I have been trying to send out our latest round of snapfish pictures, but I haven't been having any luck. I am having an issue with my account. It has done this before and I just had to keep trying. Eventually the problem fixed itself and I was able to send out pictures. Please be patient! I have a lot and I haven't forgotten to send them out...
