Dear Family & Friends,
Merry Christmas! It is once again that time of year. We hope your year has been peaceful and enjoyable.
For us, it’s been a little hectic. It’s finally calming down, though. Caleb was deployed for the first six months of the year while Erin lived in Utah with her sister. It was really nice to have her around family while dealing with the first deployment of our marriage.
Caleb came home from deployment on June 4th and Erin, her mom and Caleb’s mom were all there to greet him on the pier. The picture at the top of the page is from the homecoming celebration. We are both so happy that Caleb is finally home and safe.
After he returned from deployment, Caleb was stationed in Virginia for three months. After those three months, we were given two weeks of leave and we drove to Utah to visit friends and family before moving to Oklahoma.
We arrived in Oklahoma in September and didn’t get our furniture for two weeks, so we enjoyed the ‘camping’ experience and used our creativity to make furniture out of the boxes and things we had in our car.
Now, after a few months, we have most of our house organized. There is still one bedroom that is doubling as a storage room for the time being, but we work on getting it organized from time to time.
Caleb is now working for the communications wing at Tinker Air Force Base. So far it has been a nice experience. The people he works with are fun. We both enjoy spending time with them.
Before we close, we’d like to let you all know that we have a webpage full of pictures of us and things we’ve done since we got married. This is the address: http://picasaweb.google.com/krystianya.boresheva.
Merry Christmas and may God bless you, your lives and your families with love, peace and prosperity.
