Christmas at Home

We had a nice, quiet Christmas at home.  In part this was due to necessity - Nicholas had a clinic appointment for chemo and the start of a steroid pulse on Friday the 23rd (and Trevor had a work function that morning as well).  Tentative plans to venture out to a fancy dinner or brunch were squashed in fears that a grumpy Nicholas would shun all food options and making definitive plans would require a decision to be made ... too difficult.  So we found ways to occupy ourselves after present were opened and ham was consumed.
Quality time with the iPhones
