Why I Cut My Hair

A year ago while walking the Susan G. Komen my dear friend Jenn told me and another friend she had a lump. A few days later, October 20th 2009 to be precise, Jenn was diagnosed with breast cancer. This is her story and an amazing testament to 

her faith in our Lord.

I beg every gal out there to take breast cancer seriously, as you never know which healthy 

35 year old it will strike next. Please get your checkups. 

Love you Jenn!

*Update*
Jenn passed away on October 16th, 4 days shy of her one year anniversary. Please keep her family and friends in your prayers. 

Welcome Autumn!

Dallas summers are brutal on this Yankee. 

This year it seems as if Autumn was in a hurry- the heat broke mid September and we've had chilly evenings since! It was also the first year to not be all sweaty at the State Fair of Texas which comes as a relief to me and the surrounding folks I'm sure!

 Anyway- I'm looking forward to carving pumpkins soon, Shakespeare in the Park, concerts and lots of business with classes this fall. Loving my new classmates and new found time at home to work/study with Fiona. Life is good. 

I've yet to top this masterpiece from 2008.
