Dude, her and 3,633,548,534 other girls from Monterey who married a guy from DLI. Including yours truly, except that the pregnancy didn't take.
Be gentle, she's probably in total culture shock. Seriously, Monterey is barely part of the greater US.
Unless he helped her buy them she does not have a winter coat. Or boots. Or a hat or scarf or gloves. She has never driven in snow. She has never seen temperatures within 20 degrees of freezing. She has never maintained a house/car/garden/kitchen in winter.
I am so deeply, deeply glad she has your family right now. You have no idea how important you are.
Just be gentle and patient. Culture shock takes a while, you know. And you know where to find me.
Holy crap is right!! Damn, I should have told him she could come stay with me! At least I'm closer. Man...she must be brave. To go stay with people you've never met while you're pregnant with your new husband 1500 miles away.
I'd be all sorts of nervous. I've seen some video of her before, though. She seems pretty outgoing.
Anyway, I'd say "say hi for me" but she and I haven't really had a conversation before except on M's facebook.
Take her to lights on the lake!! I bet she'll love it.
