A date night before we go home

Everything went good with the doctor today. The only bad news we got was that Clint shouldn't golf while he has his central line in :( He wasn't very happy about that news, especially because that was one of the things he was looking forward to most. But oh well he'll be ready to golf when the line comes out and then the weather will hopefully be a little cooler too!
Now it sounds like we will be coming to clinic twice a week for a while and then once a week until day 100. Then we will come in for the big checkup and bone marrow biopsy. This is when we will find out for sure if Darren's cells have taken over and if the leukemia is gone. So for now we will just keep him healthy, take his meds, and wait and hope for the best possible news!

Tonight we told the nurse we were leaving for a while and we went for a drive, picked up some pizza and went over above memory grove and watched the sun go down. It was a little cold (I know weird) so we mostly sat in the car and ate, but it was really nice. Almost like an actual date! It was a really beautiful night, these pics are from my phone so they're not the best but it'll give you an idea of how beautiful it was...
I really love it up here in the avenues. There are so many trees and I love all of the old houses. It is so nice to walk around up here, I will miss that part of being here. But I am so excited to go home, a little (or a lot) nervous too, but mostly excited! We would love visitors, so just make sure you're healthy and come on over to say hi!

Thanks so much for everything everyone has done for us. We are so blessed!

Sorry about the golf - tell him it's just a stupid game ;-) Isn't it crazy how much more you enjoy sunsets? The one thing about trials is how much they make us count our blessings...tons of LOVE coming your way!
