Rockville, Virginia for 8 weeks!!

We made it here. We spent one week in Pa with my family. Then we took the scenic route to Virginia. We drove down route 15. The GPS would have taken us around Baltimore, DC and Richmond. We didn't want to go there, too much traffic.

We have settled in to our little quad. It is a nice little place to live. We have three bedrooms, 1 bath, our own laundry closet, and a very little kitchen. We share the middle great room with two other family's. One quad apartment is empty. There are 230 of us here, 80 of them being children running around. We get three squares a day and don't have to do dishes. That part is nice. They keep us very busy with classes and homework, but all very worth it.

The children are loving the school. Lane thinks it is way too long though. He is a homebody and already has adjusted to the new place. As long as he has a bed and his toys, he is pretty happy. Spending 6 hours in school he could do without.

I just wanted to let you know we are alive and well. I now know why family's in FPO (field personnel orientation) only blog one to three times while here. We have too much to do to be blogging. Plus there is no wire less in the quads. We have to take time to go another building and do it.

Please keep us in your prayers. Pray for our health. There are a lot of people in close quarters here. Pray that we will adjust to this very busy schedule. Thanks in advance for the prayers.

The above picture is of our quad.

God bless,

Rita
