Just one of those days


Today was just one of those days... the kind with nothing special planned. With my husbands lack of a work schedule that is how most of our days start. There was some grocery shopping and some housework. When we did not get the call at 2 that my husband was supposed to work the usual question of what we were going to do quickly followed, as usual. Today we decided on an adventure to Detroit Lake. We did a little fishing and I caught my first fish of my adult life. Ammy caught Three with her barbie fishing pole! All together our family brought home 9 fish about 12 inches each! We then set up our bonfire and had grilled steaks corn on the cob, and some salad.
Transitioning from being a student and mom with a busy schedule to a mom with no schedule has been hard for me. Days like this that start with nothing special but turn into the kind of days i know my daughter will always remember makes it a little more tolerable. Some times not having a plan can be hard to handle, and other times it can be a little blessing waiting to surface!

Ammy's new hair do


I am so excited to tell you all about another amazing company I have learned about during our journey into the crazy world of cancer. Angel hair foundation, which works with Mirage hair systems in Eugene Oregon, is one amazing company. With Ammy's hair thinning so much we were referred to Angel hair foundation which helps patients in Oregon and Washington to recieve hair systems. Jan who is the women who helped us was incredibly sweet to Amethyst and helped us have a great expereince. Ammy's hair peice comes at a high price of $2,580. Through many people's generosity we had this donated to us. I am so thankful for all of the people that are here to help with these things. I would never be able to provide this for my little one on my own. Now not only does Ammy have a new confidence and pride in what she looks like, she is extra excited because it is "Hannah Montana" hair.
