NEWS FLASH...

The Spirit of truth has spoken...




THE PAGANOS ARE VIRGINIA BOUND. Super excited...Tom gets to keep flying the mighty Viper...potential of having kiddo #2 in the states (crossing fingers), and endless riches await!

Ah hahahaha..WORLD DOMINATION. Y'ALL DOOMED!

Almost heaven...just Virginia

After months and months of arbitration, offers and counter-offers, the Paganos have a new assignment...we are off to Langley AFB, Virginia. The assignment was our #1 choice...and Tom will be working as ACC F-16 Stan/Eval, so he'll get to keep flying with F-16 units all around the states.

WARNING!!!!! - Tom has an interview on Wednesday, 13 Feb with Gen Bell, USFK Commander for an aide job which could keep us on the ROK for another year. Either jobs are a great honor...and we are truly happy and excited about both prospects.

Stand by for further news...

A January Montage

It's been a busy start to 2008...
Hope you all enjoy the short montage from January

Emma has taken to biking and loves to do it everyday. The weather's been slightly cool with temps in the teens. Hard to be angry at a smiling kid riding her bike...

Super Power Sled Video

Hmmm, seems to me that rope connecting the kid's mittens would've been safer if it had been threaded through her jacket sleeves instead of wrapped around her throat.

Influenza-children love to sled same as healthy children.

Hee Hee.

Festivus for the restovus

It honestly doesn't get better than to experience Christmas through the eyes of a 2year old. We enjoyed a "Down Home Christmas", Korean Style this year. Santa was even able to find the small hamlet of Osan somehow...whether he has GPS, magic, or incredible misfortune, the Pagano Clan (Korea Chapter) was visited by the jolly elf himself.

Emma was kind enough to leave Santa a note and some snacks including a glass of scotch. I'm sure he appreciated every last drop.

Christmas Eve dinner...Emma helped cook the turkey we shared with the Osan regulars.

O' Tannenbaum...Note: Paid a whopping $7 for our tree, thanks Carrie Clancy!

Emma's Visits St. Nick

Goodness knows what Emma really asked for Christmas...but it appeared to be a deep conversation with Santa. I don't think even Emma bought off on his beard however!


Much to our surprise, Emma's 1st ever visit with Santa was very smooth. Although a little timid, Emma went right up and told Santa what she was interested in receiving for "Crimas" (as she pronounces it).
