WBW ~ A Birthday Bash

OK..so it's not WAY back, but it is a bit late. Sean and Owen turned 3 on Nov 4. We had their birthday party a few weekends ago.

We had a Public Safety Theme (which matched their Halloween theme as well). I want to start by saying a BIG THANK YOU to your local Police Dept. They sent out two officers to talk to the kids and let them sit in their cars. They were able to sit in the cars and push buttons for the horns, sirens, etc. We were the talk of the 'hood.

However, I will say that the boys wanted nothing to do with the officers. Oh well, everyone else had a great time with them.

Thanks again to my sister for doing the cakes. We loved them!

They both blew out their own candles this year and wanted to do it again.


STRONG!

Don't forget to head over to Twinfatuation to see who is playing this week.

Whatcha Gonna Do? Kids Get Cancer Too

15 Months....
It's all it took.
15 months to change my life forever.
15 months to change my friend Jess' life.
FOREVER.
Just fifteen months ago, Tuesday was a healthy little toddler just enjoying life with her twin sister, Piper. She was a precocious little girl who tormented her brothers and made them laugh with her silly, infectious giggle and she was the apple of her parents' eyes.
And then she was diagnosed and life changed....
Life was cancer.
Every.day.
Cancer.
Painful.
Horrible.
Pitiful.
EVERY DAY.
Until she was gone....
And now, 15 months later, her parents struggle. Her brothers struggle. Her twin sister struggles.
To get beyond cancer.

They want people to know the truth. About cancer.
Whatcha Gonna Do?

And, I am honored to share their truth...







The truth is...cancer sucks.
It's not pretty. It's not smiles. It's awful.
Plain old awful.

Now, what are you going to do?
