Go Pink for my aunt

Tomorrow my Aunt Wendie starts chemo for Stage 2 Breast Cancer.  She was diagnosed on May 8th and is ready(or not) to be begin a battle no woman wants to under go.  Knowing her she will do so with a big fight.  Please pray for her tomorrow, and wear a little pink in her honor.

If you are close to my family you can be updated on her progress on her care page here.

Mother's Day 2012

Happy Mother's Day!...2 days late, but shouldn't everyday be Mother's Day?

I had a wonderful day this year: worship, lunch with my family, a walk with Megan and the dogs, a movie on the couch with the family, and dinner at my parents to celebrate my mom.  Megan painted me this coffee mug last week at Into the Fire, and I love it.  The kids also got me chocolates and seed packets for us to plant.  So cute!  Frank gave me, as always, a very nice day to relax and enjoy time together as a family.  I love that man!
