Let the race begin…

In all the chaos of daily life it slipped my mind that the Susan G Komen race for the cure is just 22 days away! Eeek… So now I am in a mad dash to attempt to collect $250.00 for the race. I have $20.00 already, so I only have $230.00 to go!! I will be selling bows and necklaces in attempts to collect the rest. Please help me. Its for a great cause and myself and some family members will be walking with my Aunt who was diagnosed with breast cancer shortly before Christmas last year.

Necklaces will be sold for a donation of $10.00 and bows will be sold for a donation of $5.00. 100% of the profits will be donated during the walk.




The walk will be held Sunday September 25, 2011.

To a wonderful man… I like to call him my love

To my love:

Thank you for standing by my side through everything. Thank you for being an amazing man, loving me, our crazy monsters and supporting us. Thank you for being mine all mine until the end of time. I couldn't ask for a better more loving man.

You are more than any woman could ever ask for and you put up with a lot of crap. I.E. my late night classes and long work days or when I'm coming your going and vise verse. I know its tough now but we can survive anything together. We will conquer life and make it an amazing one along the way. Yes, we hit a few rocky patches along the way but no matter what we stand strong. You are the one and only person outside of my parents that I know I can trust with my life.

I can't thank you enough for all that you do for me, for us, for our monsters. I love you with all my heart and soul. Thank you once again :D

Breast Cancer Awareness

My aunt was diagnosed with breast cancer shortly before Christmas 2010. Our family has been supporting her as much as we can. She has undergone surgery and everything went smoothly. The cancer did not have a chance to spread so she will be monitored closely for any changes that may occur.

I will be participating, on her behalf, in the Susan G. Komen Race for the cure this year. The race takes place on Sunday, September 25, 2011. For those of you who would like to join me please contact me as soon as possible. I have a plan for raising my goal donation of $1,00o.

I created necklace for a few close family members before my aunts surgery and many of my family and friends have been inquiring about buying them. So here is the opportunity.

*The Necklace*

*A Closer View*

About the necklaces:
Made from one pink organza ribbon and one black organza ribbon, measuring approximately 24 inches long with a lobster claw clasp and a pink glass ribbon pendant. The pendant is approximately 2 inches long. Each necklace comes individually wrapped in assorted pink papers. The necklaces can be given in the original package as a gift or just a nice place to store the necklace.

Lets talk cost:
I have decided to sell them for a minimum donation of $10, 100% of the money will go towards my goal of $1,000. **Shipping is not included: I will deliver the necklaces withing rang but shipping will be extra if necessary**

I will be taking orders for the necklaces via e-mail

Please contact me at designer09ashley@gmail.com

Remember its for a great cause and all the money raised will be put toward my goal for the race this year. Thank you for any and all donations.

Wow how time flies… Right by you!

So it's been almost a year since our family suffered a great loss and its seems like just yesterday my grandmother left us to be with Elvis :) (inside thing)! Its so unreal, her not being here with us! I am so at a loss for words and what to do. Although I do know that she would be so excited that the Packer's are going to the Superbowl this year :D That was her team!

Now our family has new battles to face with illnesses and what not *hoping and praying for no lives to be taken this year* it was a very tough and strenuous year last year and I am hoping this year will be much better.
