Another Reason to Smile: Support Breast Cancer Research

She has been my rock and wise counselor for years. She taught me how to be clever, appreciate sarcasm, stand up for myself, stay focused on education and to be more confident in speaking my mind. Now, there's just one more attribute to add to the list of things my big sister has inspired and encouraged me to do...get involved and contribute to something you believe in.

This October my sister, April, is participating in the Breast Cancer 3 Days in Atlanta that supports Susan G. Komen for the Cure. She has committed to raise $2300 by participating in the 60 mile walk! Wow- that just blows me away! Not only is it a commitment of her time and energy of the 3 days, but she has been training for this all summer. She has a full time job, is a wife and is a mother of 2 and somehow manages to keep everyone happy, fed, taxied around, train and have a smile on her face and spring (no pun intended) in her step :) ...yes, in short she is like a modern day Wonder Woman (and has the bracelets to prove it...really, I've seen them!)

I was thrilled when she called me and said the words that everyone loves to hear..."I have an idea"... We discussed different ways that I would be able to help her raise the money to contribute to her overall goal and I am so happy to be able to reveal the new packages that not only preserve family memories but that will also help touch so many lives in the process.

Just in time to get a jump on family pictures for Holiday gifts and cards (or just because), these packages could be just what many have been waiting for. Something that fits the budget and also gives back to support such a wonderful cause!

Thank you for taking the time to read about this great event and please share it with all your friends and family- I would love to be able to show my big sis how much support is really out there and just blow right past her initial goal of $2300!!!

Whether you get involved by booking a session, donating, volunteering or participating in events such as these I strongly encourage you to do so to the best of your abilities. We have been blessed in so many areas of our lives and this is just one way to give a little back and ensure that ours and future generations have the same opportunity to receive hope, encouragement and success!
