As you can tell, my blogs are getting further and further apart- that is probably a result of getting really busy. Sorry. I have had to go TDY (out of town for business) 2 times in February and once more at the end of March, so that slows me down a bit. I will try to catch you up now, so hold on.
We are doing fine.
OK, there is more. Ben is still waiting to hear from several jobs he applied for. He is keeping busy, though, and I am so thankful to have him here and have his support. We also decided to try to find a larger place to rent, so we put in our 3 months notice and are now looking actively for another place, preferably a house. That is stressful, as the timing is crucial. So please pray for that process for us.
We have visitors! Cait and Jeremy are here, arrived here on Sunday the 2nd in the am. We were able to have a nice dinner here with them and with Stephen, who was in Hohenfels for training for the past few weeks. It was nice to be with him on his birthday- can't believe he and Drew are 27 years old! Of course, I was only 10 when I had them....NOT! It sure makes me feel old, along with other things too. Cait and Jer are headed to Ireland on Wednesday for a few days but we get them back next week. It is great to spend time with them!
Then at the end of the month, Jake is coming over too. Cool. Drew was here for Christmas, so we have been able to see all of our kids recently, what a blessing! Stephen is going down range (to Iraq) sometime in the next couple of months, so it is great that his siblings have been able to spend time with him. The picture above is of Cait and Stephen, playing on our new iMac Photo Booth.
We are heading off to Regensburg to shop and do the tourist thing. Regensburg has a great little shop called the Wurstkuchen or Sausage Kitchen, where you can get excellent sausages and sauerkraut. It has been there for hundreds of years! Then I think we will go to Ikea. Love that store.
Check out the Hohenfels Big Read blog address below. Our community is reading the book The Heart is a Lonely Hunter and this blog allows us to have an online conversation about it. Check it out.
I'll try to update again soon. We miss you all!

Nan,
Donna E and I thought the picture was you and Ben a long time ago. Sounds like you are having too much fun.
I love reading about your adventures. Thanks
Hello folks!
Boy, do we miss you! Adrian and I are keeping busy as usual. Adrian and Jimmy's band are doing well www.myspace.com/thefigurinesire you should go and check out the page and hear Adrian sing Leonard Cohen! Of course, the tractor shed theatre keeps me busy. I'm doing Stephen Schwartz' Working and getting it ready for May. I'm also doing the literary magazine at the same time.
The Duchess came out for a visit through LRC www.catawba.k12.nc.us/schoolpages/sshs/rice
check out the photos. She is flying us back to Ireland this summer for some peace work. My family isn't well. My sister has something wrong with her brain and is being further tested, my uncle has cancer, and my beloved grandmother has suffered congestive heart failure and is now diabetic! Adrian finally has his breathing mask (does Ben still use his?) and my health comes and goes.
We miss you terribly. I'm glad tonight I got a chance to catch up with your blog. It all sounds wonderful. May the Lord continue blessing you and your family.
Much love,
Molly & Adrian
