Relay For Life

Image
On a completely different topic - you likely might not know that I am deeply involved with Relay For Life - the #1 Fundraising Event for the American Cancer Society! Cancer has touched my life... quite a few times, but none as deep as when I lost my father on December 12, 2015. 45 short, yet incredibly long, months ago (as of yesterday). It hadn't even been too long since he was diagnosed - about 2 years give or take if I remember correctly (which is rarely the case). My dad did his first Relay For Life in NY - the year after he passed, I went to NY to attend the Relay at my very own high school. Afterward, I knew I wanted to be a part of something that is so much bigger than just me, or one event, so I found my local event and let me tell you they are some really amazing people! If you would like more info, you can see my Team Page - Cookie's Cancer Fighters (keeping my dad's original team name alive)!               (5/31/14)

Has it really been over 6 months since my last post?? You might have noticed the new name... Turns out there is a trademark on the name, and I was unaware. I have apologized and changed everything right away, but will need to figure out my next steps... what will the new name be? what is my direction? A lot of things have happened in the last few months. We had been house-hunting, in and out  of contract on a house, and listed our own house! July 25th, 2019 - we officially bought our NEW home and sold our OLD home on the same day! Slowly, but surely, we are settling in and enjoying the pool and shorter commute! 5 days after moving in, we left for a week in Colorado (*watch out for that post!), which had been planned for months. 5 days after returning, the new school year started, on my birthday!! We now have an 8th Grader and Kindergartener!!! Where has the time gone?! With all that being said - today is the day the applications for Disney Parks
