CHRISTMAS TIME!

Now that Thanksgiving is over, it is officially Christmas time!!

I can't wait to go home to Portland in a few weeks and see the city all dressed up for the holidays!

Happy Holidays!

Magical red cup

Can someone please explain to me why drinks taste so much in the red holiday cups?

Is like they are filled with happiness.

My weakness is Pumpkin Spice Lattes.

What's yours?

Positive Additude

My mom got diagnosed with Breast Cancer last month. 

When I first heard the news it was terrifying, horrible and all I could think was how unfair, why my mom.

These feelings have not gone away in the slightest, but my mom's attitude is inspiring.

She has a great sense of humor, a positive attitude and kept her head up through everything. 

I hope that if I was handed something as bad as this that I would be able to stay as strong as she is.

She got a mastectomy and now after a series of tests it is looking like she is cancer-free at this point.

She will still have to do around 4 months of radiation, but things are looking up.

I want to take the time to thank every doctor who has spent anytime trying to find a cure to cancer and every person who has ever donated money to help the cause. You are helping to save my mom and millions of other people around the world.

Thank you.

I am going to make a real effort to start posting on a more regular basis, and hopefully the next post won't be as solum as this one.

If any of you have know anyone who has gone through breast cancer of Chemo please comment and let me know more of what to expect my mom to be going through.
