Happy Christmas Eve!

Kids are excited! I ran to do some errands with them this am to (1) get stuff done and (2) let Chris get some stuff done at home!

We went to 5pm mass, then to my parents for dinner and gifts, finishing up around 10pm, and the kids were beat, but did great. Lots of good food and drink - I had 1 glass of wine. That makes 3 for the whole time I've been going through treatment. I'm only a social drinker mind you, but it is nice to have a nice glass of red wine with a good meal. We left stuffed. The holidays have not been kind!

We put cookies and milk out for Santa, and some cheerios and water out for the reindeer. Santa had left a nice letter for the kids and Grandmom and Grandpa's, telling them how good they had been this year helping out Mom and Dad, and being good to each other. They're reallly been phenominal through this. Can't really tell that they've missed a beat. They've taken the whole thing in stride - including the Hickman, which has got to be a bit weird to see. They were of course happy to see it go!

Chris and I were up for a bit more, and then off to bed.
