Happy belated Christmas my friends!!! 🌟🎅🏻🎄
It’s been a difficult hurdle but the worst is now behind us. I am still in a bit of a shock, to be honest, that less than a week ago we managed to finally close on our house, and now I am spending the better part of the holidays and New Year back in sunny Naples, how lucky am I.
A part of me still can’t believe it, and yet another part realizes the work that lies ahead (we are by no means finished as we need to get past the tricky terrains of settling in and navigating our new frontier 🌎). However, as I said to hubs today, the hard part is done, and now it’s all a case of making sure that everything else falls into place. Case in point, Mamma spent the better part of today mapping out what we need to do for 1Q2018. Moving logistics, new furniture, school fees, childcare, work, travel, installations — these are just a few samples of what’s to come, but it’s all good news so I am taking everything in stride. If I can get this far, then I can go even farther!!! Nothing can tear me down. Oh, that and thank goodness for Winter Camp! Munchkin seems to like it loads too, judging by all the goodies he’s been bringing home since Tuesday!
As for Christmas in Florida? Well... you can do no wrong there can you. I’ll let the pictures do all the talking. The one big drawback was my little one falling sick with a high temperature the day before Christmas, which lasted for a good few days (there’s nothing like spending Christmas Eve in the emergency room!). Thankfully he is now on the mend.... and as for my big guy, well we all know that Christmas is his favorite day of the year!!! I wouldn’t be surprised if it even trumps his own birthday.
For all of my dear friends and readers who celebrate — Happy Christmas to all and wishing you all a very happy holiday!!!! 💎🎁
