Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

We hope that you all had a wonderful Christmas and a happy New Year. Paul and I enjoyed Christmas dinner and games with a family in our new ward, and then attended a squadron Christmas party later on that evening. As none of our belongings from the states had come and there was nothing keeping us home, we decided to do some traveling on Pauls 4 days off. First we drove to the French city of Metz, located about an hour from us in the Lorraine region.
