happy #1 ~ joe moved back home this week!!! i am sooooo super excited about this. wow, my patience and perseverance worked and He restored our marriage. sooooo many prayers answered. of course there is still work ahead but nothing we can’t handle. this is a super big happy 🙂
happy #2 ~ fall is officially here…the leaves are changing…the smell of fall is in the air…corn mazes are open…haunted houses everywhere…pumpkins for sale…i totally looooooooooove fall!!!
happy #3 ~ i totally got to reconnect with a best friend from high school who i haven’t spoken to for probably 13 – 14 years. we spent an hour just catching up as much as we could….totally cool
happy #4 ~ i have been scrapping up a storm this week…having joe in the house truly helps my mojo…here is a layout i did this week…i tried out the new 6 x 12 size and loved it. i totally see more layouts this size in my future. this layout can be viewed fully here
and to totally tie in with this layout…october is breast cancer awareness month. this is a subject near and dear to my heart as my mom battled it for quite a few years…and she won the battle! hers spanned about 1981 – 1989 i’ll say and since then she has been considered a complete cure!!! also my friend tanya (love ya girl) is battling right now…and she is going to win her battle too!!!! remember to do your self breast exams girls…your never too young. and tanya, maybe you have a few words of wisdom to share in the comments?

So happy so is back home. You are strong and your faith really makes me believe even more now.
Fall..yes, I too love it. I just wish the weather would cooperate with me here in Jersey. Its been in the middle/upper 80’s all week. What fun is that when you want to go to the pumpkin patch?
This layout is fabulous and loving tribute to your mom. I am happy to hear she beat it too!
ooks like life is going well – I am so happy for you – I hope all the happy continues!
Wonderful news!!! Amy I am so proud of your fait and deturmination!! You deserve only the best!!!! Hugs
Amy… I am soo happy for you & your family. You are a true example for those who think it is easier to just give in & give up!
I love fall too! (even though it’s more like… not summer than fall here !!! lol…)
Wisdom:
I don’t care how old you are, get a mammogram! It saved my life, it caught cancer early! At 35, I wasn’t suppose to have a mammogram this early, but my Dr. pushed it for no other reason than to have a baseline for which to compare at 40. Just FYI – 80% of breast cancer is not hereditary girls! It doesn’t run in my family, yet I have it. I did my breast self-exams every month – never felt a thing! BUT a mammogram found a 3mm cancer!
(Amy, sorry that I slacked on blog reading lately, I had just been really busy!!!)
ALSO, congrats to you and Joe for working things through and patience and perseverance put you 2 back on the map! So awesome!!!
