Thanks Kids!


Our birthdays came in February and our kids got us a great gift, a night stay at the Half Moon Bay Ritz Carlton. Everyone knows how our March went so we weren't able to use our gift till Mothers Day. It was fantastic. We were in a room that had access to the club which we took full advantage of by eating and drinking our way through the stay. We were treated to wine and chocolate dipped strawberries in our room in the evening. We sat by the fire pit watching the ocean and 18th hole of the golf course.
It was a nice way to celebrate the end of our brush with cancer. Tom is doing so well. All he is waiting for now is his full energy level to return. This being said after the man played 62 holes at his favorite golf course! Cancer reminds you of just how fragile life is and to take nothing for granted. The enormity of that does fade some as things get better. We want to always remember though how blessed we are and how loved we feel. That will never fade. Thank you.
