And now, a word from our sponsor........

We interrupt this regularly scheduled story to bring you this information--

If you are just now joining/following this blog, we want you to be aware that even though these posts began in September, 2009, the story being told began in the fall of 2005. To read this story in its entirety, begin with the first post, "The Beginning."  We are working diligently to get this story told and caught up to "real time" before our transfer to Japan later this year. We hope you are enjoying reading this story as much as we are enjoying sharing it with you.

Thank you for following along with our Navy life!!

And now, back to our story.....
