Celebrate Breast Cancer Fighters and Survivors at Mad Hatter Party

Blog· Events

There are a few words that I am not a fan of and ‘cancer‘ is one of them. No matter who you talk to, we have all been affected in one way or another by cancer. Unfortunately, I lost my grandma to cancer and was never given the chance to meet her.

betty stathamMy grandma died from breast cancer the year before I was born.  I listen to my mom talk about her mother weekly. She misses her dearly and knows that her mom’s life was taken way too early. I hate that I never had a chance to meet her or make memories with her. There are so many things that I hate about the situation and feel a bit cheated that I didn’t get to grow up with a grandma present in my life. The saddest part is that my grandma felt a lump in her breast and didn’t take the proper steps in time to save her life.

There is no reason in this world that you should take a lump in your breast or getting a breast exam yearly lightly. I know many women don’t like mammograms and complain about them but they save lives every day. Methodist Richardson Medical Center offers 3D Mammography that can detect breast cancer in very early stages which can prevent you from even going through chemo or a double mastectomy.

One fear and annoyance that many women have is getting called back to the office for more imaging with regular mammography. The great thing about 3D Mammography is that there are much fewer call backs so you don’t have to stress about returning to your Dr. office.

Methodist Richardson Medical Center is hosting a fun Mad Hatter Tea Party to celebrate breast cancer fighters and survivors on September 12th. Each guest who has battled breast cancer, or is still in the fight, will have the option to be honored by walking the pink carpet. After the participants strut their stuff, Jenevieve Hughes, MD, renowned breast cancer surgeon, will be the guest speaker.

This will be such a fun event with massages, makeovers, hat decorating and more! I would love if you would join me! Registration is completely free but it is required.

One of my favorite things about 2020.... businesse One of my favorite things about 2020.... businesses adapting and making things work! I was recently introduced to @savageburritos and I'm in love.  Savage Burritos is the love child of Uncle Julios so it you like UJ, you'll love Savage.  They are a delivery only service offering burritos and bowls from select Uncle Julio kitchens in DFW. We ordered a variety of items from burritos, bowls, queso and more. Every single item was bursting with flavor. If you like spicy,  I highly recommend the Nashville Hot Chicken Burrito. 🔥 Don't forget to add on a Margarita pop - nothing beats alcohol and Mexican food delivered straight to your door!

I know this year has dragged on and on for many pe I know this year has dragged on and on for many people but it has flown by to me. I'm 100% sure it has something to do with welcoming Myles into this world during the height of a pandemic and keeping a toddler alive at the same time.  I can't wait for Christmas morning to make memories with my little family (even though Christmas shopping isn't complete and I haven't even thought about wrapping presents). It will all fall in to place, it always does. We didn't attend our favorite Christmas events this year or get pictures with Santa so this random Santa picture will do and I'm 100% happy with it.  If this year has taught you anything,  let it be finding the joy in the little things ❤
The holidays are quickly approaching! 🎄 Althoug The holidays are quickly approaching! 🎄 Although things might be a bit different this season, we're still enjoying some of our favorite foods and traditions. This year we're incorporating ordering family meal kits from @chuysrestaurant for not only my family but extended family that we might not be able to hang with this holiday.  It's a simple way to spread the joy with loved ones, eat delicious food and not forget the reason for the season.  #ad #nachoaverageholiday
Family pictures are always so much fun.... this ye Family pictures are always so much fun.... this year we got to attempt it twice thanks to sweet Bryce.  Thankfully the second time around he cooperated. As painful as they may be,  I'm so glad we get these done every year. I love looking back at them and see how much we've all changed and how much the kids have grown!
Can y'all believe the end of the year is here? We Can y'all believe the end of the year is here? We got our family pictures back and they look great other than the fact that Bryce decided not to participate. We got one shot with my entire family and Bryce is off to the side playing in poison ivy. 🤦‍♀️

I wanted to send a quick thank you for all the birthday love yesterday! Birthdays are not my favorite day but it was nice to hear from so many people. Here's to another year around the sun ❤
This weekend we ventured to @kidzaniausa, a city r This weekend we ventured to @kidzaniausa, a city ran completely by kids. Your child gets to fully immerse themselves into role playing any job they can imagine. From checking animals at the veterinarian, putting out fires as a firefighter,  flying planes in an simulator, creating their own personal logo with Bic, or being a weatherman at WFAA - the options are endless! Kidzania activities are for ages 4 and up.

We felt very comfortable inside with their safety protocols. Temperatures were checked before entering.  Everybody ages 4 and up must wear a mask.  Hand sanitizer was readily available throughout the entire space.  If you're looking for a fun outlet for your child to explore, check it out!
