As of April 2, 2012, this blog became the place for documenting our New Adventure called Breast Cancer. Basically it's all about our Cancer ParTay.
As of Oct 2013- our 18 month Survivor mark- the ParTay's pretty much over. Treatments are done, my hair is back and I am healthy & cancer-free!
As of today- I want you to know that the trick to living a happy, healthy and wonderful life in the future is to remember where we've been, what we've learned and how much we've been blessed! That's exactly what I hope you find here.

Live Strong Results

Today was the final assessment of my LiveStrong program. It's a little lot bitter sweet! I have really come to enjoy spending two days a week with these awesome people. I even asked Katelyn if I could just be a life-long Livestrong groupie but she just laughed. Do you think that's a NO? LOL I will miss being part of this fun group so much! I do have to admit though that I have been amazed at how much I have enjoyed working out! It makes me laugh every time that I say that out loud! LOL

And then simply just for MY benefit (cuz I realize that not many people care what my butt looks like {except maybe Brett. LOL oh... and KBro when she comes with me to the Infusion Center. ;)}, I have been keeping track through pictures of my LiveStrong transformation. It's only subtle but I can totally see the lift of my butt and the loss of some love handles. Go me!!! 
Feel free to NOT scroll down if shots of my butt make you uncomfortable. I won't be offended! LOL
Robbie, Katie and I have plans to keep up being Fitness Freak Groupies. Hopefully, this work out thing is just a part of me now.
Thanks LiveStrong (and Katelyn, since she'll always have a special place in my healthy heart) for the jump start on healthy living and my tight butt!!!!  Wahoo!!!!
