I will let the photos do the talking but suffice to say the children are having a ball with their cousins so it has been a wonderful Christmas so far. The only low point was the wet weather on our holiday to Wye River last weekend and I'm afraid to say that by Monday morning we admitted defeat and came home a day early but looking on the bright side, I think we needed the extra time to get prepped for Christmas day which was a sunny 31 degrees.
Celia's bloods have been holding up so she had her monthly visit to hospital for intravenous chemo on Friday. This also means she is on steroids for the next 5 days which is never easy especially when Andy and I plan to have one precious night away together tomorrow. I broke the news to Celia tonight and as expected her reaction was pretty extreme. There will be lots of tears tomorrow before we leave but I need to remember it is the steroids that cause these mood swings and we will get sweet, good natured Celia back in a few days time. Happy New Year!
