Fun on R&R

Just wanted to check in and let you all know that I am enjoying my time at home. The kids are on Spring Break and Brant took the week off so we are having a great time together. I am still getting lots of rest (hitting the couch every few hours or so!) and Brant has been doing all of the Spring yard work. It really makes me tired to watch him :) We've been to the movies and library, but mostly we are just hanging out around the house which is sooooo nice!!

We had a wonderful Easter together. It was a real blessing to be home for the holiday and be able to go to churh together. We certainly had a lot of blessings to celebrate. Here is a rare picture of the four of us together.

I will head back to NY with mom next Thursday the 19th. I will see the doctor that morning and hopefully be admitted that afternoon to start chemo. It is hard not thinking about going thru 5 days of chemo, but I have a whole week left at home to enjoy first. This trip to NY will probably be at least five weeks long. Brant is planning to spend one of the weeks up there with me this time around. I will be in the hospital almost the whole time, which won't be as nice as the apartment I'm sure. I'll have nurses instead of doormen!

Thanks for all of the love and support we have received. I was greeted home with cards and care packages that were all so nice. And Brant really appreciated the meals that were dropped off while I was gone. This has all meant so much to our family!!!
