If you haven't figured out yet, David was given the opportunity to take a leave of absence from his current airline and take a new flying job overseas. He accepted the position on November 10, and we packed our 9 suitcases and 4 backpacks then boarded a flight on December 10. To put it in airline terms...it was a “quick turn”! It was bitter sweet to leave family and friends (especially for Abigail), but we are so excited about the opportunity that has been given to us. It's truly a once in lifetime chance, and we're going to take advantage of it! The girls are adjusting quite well, and we're thankful for their courage and adaptability. I guess we'll all have some stories to tell!

Merry Christmas 2010
David, Christa, Abigail & Audrey An
Prov. 16:9

David got his new wings tonight...congrats!
