beauty

they say- beauty is in the eye of the beholder AND beauty comes from within- both of these fully describe Janice . .

Mom, Janice and I-- the picture is blurry, but hey, that's okay!

today the ladies of our church choir celebrated and honored janice with a hat and scarf shower- last fall janice was diagnosed with breast cancer, and underwent surgery followed by chemotherapy- this week will be her final treatment fingers crossed. she enjoyed wearing hats prior to losing her hair, so she was not new to the whole hat thing, but needed to add to her wardrobe.

today we cried, laughed, and shared in the joy of janice and her beauty, her faith, her love for us, our love for her . . .
a true feeling of sisterhood i think few are able to experience.

throughout this time of trial janice's faith has never waivered, and her spiritual strength has become an inspiration to us all.

here's a few shots . . .



tea, coffee, punch, finger sandwiches, yummy desserts



This photo gives you an idea of how zany janice is, i don't think i've ever seen her without a smile on her face---that's just who she is

her goodies, she got some beautiful scarves and hats along with some fun stuff-

we all wore our pins proudly today . .
