Photo Shoot

A few months ago I realized I really needed a "pick me up". After a year now of struggling with growing my hair back, losing the prednisone weight, and dealing with the other side effects of the multiple medications I was on, I was due for a "feel good day." Luckily, our 3rd Anniversary was soon approaching so what better gift than a gift to myself AND my husband all in one??!!! So, I spent the afternoon with some wonderful women who did my hair, makeup, and outfits and then put me in the front of the camera for some fun photo shots. Though some of the pictures are "private" and some might wonder why I would post pictures like this to the world, I am proud of them. I am. I have been to Hell and back and am alive to tell about it. I have lost a lot of my hair and grew it back. I had gained 20+lbs and lost it all, I had been put on 20+pills a day and am down to 7.I went from being told I could never run again to training for a half marathon. I can finally once again look into the mirror and say that I-am-beautiful, and that is worth it right there. So.....here are a few of my favorite!!!!
