Up to date...

I am finally caught up.  I thought I didn't have anything exciting to post from this year,  but I did find a couple fun things! 

* Kaylee's Volleyball
* Ladies Weekend in Florida
* Young Surivivors
* Kaylee's Birthday

Enjoy!

Ask Me My Number...

I am part of the leadership team with an awesome group of ladies...we have formed a local affiliate of the Young Survival Coalition.  We have monthly meetings and provide support for other young women who have been diagnosed with breast cancer.  This is such a great group of ladies.  I am so glad cancer brought us together...

We were lucky enough to have Jenna Stoll donate her time and talent and take these fabulous pictures.  She did a great job for us.  We are hoping to get the word out about our group through various media outlets and we think these pictures are a great way for young women to know there is life after breast cancer...

 These numbers are our ages at diagnosis

More Volleyball

Kaylee's team has improved a ton over the course of the season...we headed to IL for a tournament and the girls played very well!  They had to play against the Sting 11 Gold team and scored 18 points against them in each game.  That was awesome!  It is sad to think there are only 3 more tournaments to go...

Ladies Weekend in Florida

I decided to take a year off, not go to my Young Survivor Conference.  It happened to be in Orlando this year which gave me the idea to spend a weekend in The Villages with Justin's parents instead!  So, my Mom, Amanda, and I spent a long weekend in The Villages.  We had a great time - shopping, eating (lots of eating), and chillin' at the pool. 
Thank you Mom and Dad K!!

Kaylee's Birthday - 10 years old!

It is hard to believe that Kaylee is 10 already!  Auntie Christy and Uncle Tavis were so nice to let us have the party at their house...

Kaylee's First Volleyball Tournament

Kaylee is playing club volleyball on Milwaukee Sting's 10's team.  She is having a lot of fun.  I think she is really excited to finally be the one on the court.  She has spent many years watching Mariah play.  She has learned a lot and has been doing pretty well!  Here are a couple pictures and a video from her first tournament...

Well, I can't get the video to load, but I will try again later this week...



Christmas

We had a wonderful Christmas.  We had a number of days
filled with food and fun.  We are so blessed to be able to
spend time with our family and friends. 

I made this blanket for Kaylee to take to her volleyball games...

her team colors are black, gold, & white
