I can't believe it's fall already, can you? It feels like we just barely turned the calendar on to 2015 and now here we are, on the down hill slope of the year. I love this time of year. The cooler temperature, my birthday, & the holidays are just some of the reasons why I enjoy fall time. One of my most favorite things about this time of year is that October is National Breast Cancer Awareness Month & this is a cause that is near and dear to my heart (pun intended wink). Before we kick off this years swap, I'd like to tell you why I started it:
my Grammy.
I can't remember exactly when it happened, but I remember my mom telling me through teary eyes that her mom was diagnosed with breast cancer. 3 years ago, however, we got the news that she was cancer free & I knew I wanted to do something to show my support for all of the women I know who have had breast cancer. Those who have beat it & those who are fighting it, & those might not have won. I knew immediately that combining my love for nail polish was the best way I could do this & I started this swap each October. It's not much, but wearing pink nails throughout the month of October is the way I show my support for all of the amazing women out there. If you'd like to join the swap, it's really simple:
