Dear friends, family, and covert unnamed secret 
government members who will no doubt intercept this,

First off, we must apologize for taking six years to send 
out our first family Christmas letter, but as most of you 
know, the past few years have been a little hectic (to 
say the least).  Thankfully this year has allowed some
return to normalcy!

As most of you know, neither of us are with the FBI 
anymore.  Although it was only nine years, being made 
fun of, shot, hunted, infected with alien viruses, lied to, 
abducted, killed, and generally hated by humans and 
non-humans alike, we felt it was time for a change.  

Since leaving the FBI, Scully (Dana for you family 
members) has gone back to school and become a 
neurosurgeon.  She spends most of her days at the 
Our Lady of Sorrows Hospital, which you may have 
seen in the news lately.  The job is stressful and 
sometimes incredibly depressing, but thankfully the 
invention of Google and the internet has sped up the 
diagnostic part of the job considerably.  She says the 
best part of the job is working with the kids.  

Although she doesn't have much free time these days, 
Scully still likes to read as much as she can.  Most 
recently gracing the nightstand is Dori Carter's 
"Beautiful Wasps Having Sex".  If you haven't read 
it yet, she highly suggests it!

Mulder has moved his work home, to our new house 
in [undisclosed location].  The house itself is rather 
unremarkable, but we've managed to make it our own.  
Even The Fish have gotten used to it!  He spends his 
days keeping up The Lone Gunmen newspaper, 
researching and ghost writing for other related 
magazines and journals, and throwing pencils at the 
ceiling.  Every Thursday he makes a trip to town for 
iced tea and sunflower seeds.  On occasion he picks 
up some messy spare ribs and giant plastic bib napkins, 
as we have not eaten chicken from a bucket for 13 years. 

Most recently, we've just taken our first vacation in years.  
It was a much needed escape from the stress of work and 
the snow!  Spending a week on [undisclosed island] was 
amazing.  It was the first time in a very long time we've been
able to relax and just let the rest of the world fade away.  
We were both able to work on our tans as Mulder tried 
out his rowing skills.  Aside from an odd number of 
ever-present hovering black helicopters, the vacation 
was everything we could have hoped for.  Mulder even
bought a new tropical fish for his tank.  He named him Felix.

We'd like to wish everyone a very Merry Christmas and 
all the best for a happy, healthy New Year!  Hopefully 
we'll see you soon, but if not, we invite you all to join us 
in our [undisclosed secret bunker] in December of 2012! 
(Offer does not apply to covert unnamed secret government 
members who will no doubt intercept this).

All our love,
Scully and Mulder
