Told You I was Going to be a Purse Model

Remember when I was pretending to be a purse model? (If you don't click here to refresh your memory). Well it turns out that Miche thought I was such a great model that they wanted to do something nice for me!! They sent me a freakin cute new purse liner and donated a few things to help my mom and I raise money for cancer research so we can ride with the Huntsman Heroes in the 80 mile bike ride we like to do together. Miche is an awesome company that has three different designs all supporting cancer research. It is called their "Hope" line and all the purses say "Hope" and other inspiring things. They did not ask me to do this post nor did the tell me I have to write a good review about them, I am doing it of my own free will. The ladies that worked with my mom and I are so kind and generous and really made me feel special.

Here are my incredible model skills at work yet again. These pics aren't as good or fun but there was no one home to be the photographer and its hard to be a model AND a photographer all at once. I tried to get the dog to do it but he wanted to be in the pictures. I had to crop him out of every one haha.

 

There you have it :) But back to the bags Miche donated to us. We (meaning my mom and I) want to give away the set (pictured below) to the first person who donates $500. Remember this is completely tax deductible and goes directly to the Huntsman Cancer Institute. However, if no one donates that much, we will have a drawing for it. If you donate at least $200 you will be entered into the drawing. My mom and I have committed to raising a total of $1500 between the two of us so we really need your help! If you know of any companies or anybody in the community that usually donates to cancer research let them know about our link so that we can get credit for their donation! If we fail to raise the $1500 we won't be able to do the Little Red 80 mile bike ride at all this year :( I would be really sad. After doing it last year the day after I found out I had cancer, I am really looking forward to doing it this year hopefully with a little more energy and on a better note :) This really means a lot to me so help spread the word!!

All this is included in the gift set. Three purses, a set of interchangeable handles and a super cute wallet that I wish I could keep.

All you have to do is go to this link http://littlered.kintera.org/womenofsteal and donate. Every dollar helps! So if you only have one dollar to spare, do it. It's for a good cause. I would know. Because there is a lot about ovarian cancer that they don't know yet and I need them to hurry and find it out!

Last year 2 days after I found out I had cancer. You've seen this picture before I'm sure.

P.S. I am doing really well. Today I got to run with my former teammates and I was even able to keep up with them! Yes it was their "recovery" run and I was not recovering, but it still felt awesome and made me really happy! I love my hair now that it looks like a cute pixie cut and I am LOVING the sunshine. Also I happen to be going into a situation in a few days in which I might get to see a lot of monkeys. Holy crap I can't even contain my excitement. If they jump on me and crawl on me and I get to play with them I might just pee my pants because I will be so happy. But that is in a few days to come and I will definitely be bragging about it here!

Oh and it was my 3 year anniversary on March 12! Can't believe I made it that long. But seriously. It was a rough third year for us.
