<div style="font-family: 'St. Nicholas'; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Dear Friends and Family,</span></div>
<div style="font-family: 'St. Nicholas'; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: 'St. Nicholas'; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">The year of 2013 has kept us running, both literally and figuratively. We</span></div>
<div style="font-family: 'St. Nicholas'; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">remain in Loma Linda where Barry has finished his third year of medical school </span><span style="font-size: large;">and is now taking a year to complete his Masters in Bioethics. Christy is now </span><span style="font-size: large;">halfway through her nurse practitioner program and will graduate in the spring of </span><span style="font-size: large;">2015.</span></div>
<div style="font-family: 'St. Nicholas'; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: 'St. Nicholas'; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">In addition to our studies, we have both enjoyed various other pursuits. Barry </span><span style="font-size: large;">continues to lead Loma Linda Street Medicine and has begun a research project </span><span style="font-size: large;">investigating emergency room utilization by the homeless population. He has also </span><span style="font-size: large;">been running in the Loma Linda hills and surrounding mountains. In October, </span><span style="font-size: large;">he ran a 50K (31 miles) in Auburn, CA and in November, completed a </span><span style="font-size: large;">challenging 50 mile race with 15,000 feet of elevation gain in the hills of </span><span style="font-size: large;">Santa Barbara, CA.</span></div>
<div style="font-family: 'St. Nicholas'; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: 'St. Nicholas'; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">In August, Christy transitioned from working in the adult Cardiac ICU to the </span><span style="font-size: large;">Pediatric Cardiothoracic ICU. She has really enjoyed this change and loves </span><span style="font-size: large;">taking care of the babies and children who come to Loma Linda for heart </span><span style="font-size: large;">procedures.</span></div>
<div style="font-family: 'St. Nicholas'; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: 'St. Nicholas'; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Together we have also spent many hours backpacking and enjoying the mountains </span><span style="font-size: large;">of the West. Late July found us backpacking on Mt. Hood, and during the </span><span style="font-size: large;">months of August and September we took several trips to the Southern Sierra’s. </span><span style="font-size: large;">We were also able to spend time back East in late August where we enjoyed a </span><span style="font-size: large;">relaxing week camping at Metallak Island in Maine.</span></div>
<div style="font-family: 'St. Nicholas'; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: 'St. Nicholas'; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">We greet the New Year in a cozy new-to-us apartment that we moved into last </span><span style="font-size: large;">July. Advertised as a “1930’s bungalow”, we find ourselves enjoying its rustic </span><span style="font-size: large;">charm while trying to stay warm inside its thin, uninsulated walls. However, we </span><span style="font-size: large;">find plenty of warmth and good cheer in each other and the love of family and </span><span style="font-size: large;">friends. These blessings are inestimable and we feel very blessed this holiday </span><span style="font-size: large;">season.</span></div>
<div style="font-family: 'St. Nicholas'; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="font-family: 'St. Nicholas'; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Love,</span></div>
<div style="font-family: 'St. Nicholas'; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Barry & Christy Howe</span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I'm liking <a href="http://emilystestkitchen.blogspot.com/">Emily's idea</a> of being more loose and free with recipe trials. If something works, write it down with a few notes about your tweaks and fails. And for me, that means even if I don't have a great picture. If the tummy loved it, it deserves to be remembered for that time I can't think of anything to make! I have a little black book for this purpose... but I haven't used it for over a year. Which obviously means it's not working.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Which leads me to this mustard colored soup. It's delicious. I was rather dubious at first. I mean come on, lentils and carrots. But what's a girl's to do when her husband is out swimming in the cold rain and his return is imminent and he's sure to be shivering and class is soon afterwards and her cupboards are missing so many key soup ingredients.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
So this girl went to her trusted online recipe folder of "things to try one day" and scanned through the soup recipes. Nope, don't have onions. Nope, I don't have potatoes. Nope. Nope. Nope. Nope. Hmmm... carrots and lentils...</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Here's the recipe:</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<b>Tweaks </b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<b>i.e. what I did</b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
~2 cups green lentils</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
3 carrots, shredded (that's all I had)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
water</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
McKay's chicken seasoning</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Ground cumin</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Garlic powder</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Onion Powder</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Tumeric</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Squirt of Bragg's Liguid Aminos (for that umami depth)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
salt/pepper</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
juice of 1/2 a lemon</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Savory cashew cream/mayonnaise stuff I had in the fridge. I'm sure yoghurt, milk, or coconut milk would work great too.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
On Top:</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Fresh Lime juice (don't skip, this made it DELISH!)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Cilantro</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Drizzle of extra virgin olive oil</div>

Hood, Part 1After the Thorp/Westermeyer wedding, we went backpacking with the siblings of the bride and groom (Allana, Chris, and Stephen) and the father of the bride (Dr. Westermeyer). We had a wonderful time, and kudo's to the Westermeyer's for being willing to go tromping off to the woods with us so soon after Allie's wedding. Here are snapshots with mostly people as the main subjects. The scenic pictures are coming in the next post.<br />

We're two sick bunnies right now. Sniffling, coughing, aching, feverish. Repeat. We take turns mustering energy to do a few dishes, make a meal, and take care of the other one. We do miss our Mom's right about now.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We say things like, "Why don't you take a bath", "Might it be a good idea to call off tomorrow?", "Here's some echinacea tea", and "How about we listen to James Herriot?" When school must be done (such as my 28 page research paper that I turned in today), the other sits (or sleeps) sympathetically nearby for frequent encouragement.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
In all honesty, this sickness has its positive points. It has been over a month since we've gotten to spend this much time together. Internal medicine rotation seems to have that affect on many couples. It's so nice to be together, even if we are sleeping half the time.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And, as Barry so aptly put it as we lay limp underneath the covers around noon today, </div>
<blockquote class="tr_bq" style="text-align: center;">
"There's no one I'd rather be miserable with than you"</blockquote>

A couple weekends ago, when the Northeast (and our respective families) were getting dumped on with snow, we got some of our own winter cheer. Over a foot of new snow fell in Forest Falls, where we have gone to church ever since moving to California. The day had many faces to it - from tranquil evening vistas like the picture below to bright, bluebird skies to foggy, almost eery scenes.</div>

We just love our church. The warmth, acceptance, prayers, love and genuine Christ-likeness that we find there is truly life changing. We love to tell others about our little church with such a big heart. We are evangelistic about it, even. But when you just love going to church, it's hard not to share the good news. That's how church should be. That's how <i>Christianity</i> should be. Thankfully, we experience that each week at Forest Falls.</div>

So I started digging around and found them! On our way up to Yosemite, we did a quick hike into the Sierra's. We experienced an <i>incredible</i> sunset on our way up into the mountains.<br />

One of my most favorite aspects of the West (as compared to the East) is the wide open skies and tall mountains. When these are combined, you get the perfect setting for alpenglow. Last Sabbath we took a walk with some friends in the hills and were treated to a beautiful sunset reflecting off the San Bernardino Mountains. The view was marred only by the power lines, but I tried to see them as additional artistic elements in my camera lens. Did it work?<br />

I'm trying to do a better job of posting my pictures closer to the time in which I actually took them. I'm still working to get caught up on pictures from, ahem, <i>2 years ago</i>. But you see, I have a hard time processing some of my most favorite images because I find them a bit intimidating. So forgive me when I post age-old pictures, but this post is only one month old! I was going to post pictures from this past weekend (shocking, I know!) but when I uploaded them, I found pictures from Christmas which I had completely forgotten about. You can see more on my <a href="http://www.christyfindsjoy.tumblr.com/">tumblr blog</a> (you have to go back a few pages) but here are a few that I took with my real camera :)<br />

Christmas was absolutely wonderful, but absolutely too short. The more time we spend here in Loma Linda, with the stress and intensity that comes from full time medical school for Barry along with his many other commitments (<a href="http://mymedhome.com/llstreetmed/">Street Medicine</a>, a Masters in Bio-ethics, grant writing, etc...) combined with my full time work as a nurse, plus part-time Masters work, it really starts to get old after a while. We don't mind being busy, but when you're so busy that you can't stop to truly enjoy each other, when friends grow fainter because you are always studying, then you start to long for a slower pace. We got to enjoy a blissful week of that slower pace over Christmas and it was just wonderful. We're here for a reason and we don't regret that, but we are oh so thankful for family and true warmth that Christmas brings.</div>

P.S. If you did not receive our Christmas letter in the mail, it's either because we didn't have your address or we ran out of letters! If you send us your address, next time we'll print more letters :) <br />
Hope you are all having a very merry holiday! We definitely are. Check our my <a href="http://www.christyfindsjoy.tumblr.com/">tumblr blog</a> to see more of the latest happenings.<br />

We're home in New England for the holidays! Instead of snow this year, we've had ice. It makes for great sledding! Check out the video at the bottom of the post.</div>

<br />
Just wanted to let you know about a new feature on the blog. On the left hand column there is a new link entitled "Tumblr". This leads you to my Tumblr blog where I post pictures that I take with Barry's iPhone. I thought about just posting them to this blog but I know some of you don't want to get notified every time I post a picture so that's why I think I'll keep them separate for now (if you would prefer that they are posted here on this blog, let me know!). You can follow my Tumblr if you wish or just click on the link from this blog. Cheers and Happy Holidays!<br />
