So, an update on Addison! She has started her chemo treatments and so far she's doing really great! She's still got energy and is being herself. I had lunch with Ashley on Monday and she said that right now they are just waiting for her to wake up and not be fine anymore. That thought alone makes me sad. She is such a sweet girl. But, after this whole experience she will hopefully be cancer free for life! Here are some pictures of the bracelets we are selling, in case any of you would like to order them! Remember they are $5! :)
All of this stuff with Addison has made me look into different organizations for child cancer. One I have heard about before, thanks to twitter and Peter Facinelli, but didn't ever think too much about is Alex's Lemonade Stand Foundation. I have really enjoyed the website and I hope to be able to get involved with it one day, when I have more time on my hands. But, for anyone interested in it here is the link to their website!

I have also found out that September is childhood cancer awareness month. I didn't know that before. This is a learning experience like no other. I have definitely changed my perspective on the world. So things that seemed important a few months ago look like nothing now. Family is my number one priority. Well, them and school. Everything else comes after.
I love you all dearly! I hope that the new year brings you all the joy and happiness you deserve. If you want a bracelet you can hit me up on Facebook, twitter, or e-mail me at

Until next time lovely people! :)
