Once upon a time a daughter complained to her father that her life was miserable and that she didn’t know how she was going to make it.

She was tired of fighting and struggling all the time. It seemed just as one problem was solved, another one...

We had so much fun this weekend! 

On Saturday, we went to the Rocky Mountain Hospital for Children’s Celebration of Life.  They do this each year for their current and former oncology patients.  Some of the kids have been off treatment for over 15 years and it is SO coo...

When Merry was first diagnosed, it was a whirlwind of everything.  We met new people, had to go to new places and had a lot of new experiences.  I feel like I remember everything so well because I was so emotional, but I also feel that I blocked out the whole beginning...

Wow!  We had the best time at the Social Enterprise Summit Expo last night!  There were so many amazing companies and nonprofits there with some amazing products and ideas.  The people who were stopping by were so amazing because they already "got" what we are trying...

I am so excited about our new packaging!  One way we distribute our BraveHoods is through hospitals and non-profits.  We were sending each BraveHood in a brown paper gift bag with pretty tissue paper, stickers and some information about us.  Sometimes we include a draw...

I love Amazon.  I didn't always feel this way.  I do feel bad sometimes because I have worked in brick and mortar bookstores for a lot of my life and it will be very sad if as a nation we can't support real bookstores any longer.  But alas, they have reeled me into th...

I am so excited about our new designs!  Originally, we had 3 main designs - "It's All Good in my BraveHood", "Vini, Vidi, Vici" (translated from Latin as: I came, I saw, I conquered) and "Future Cancer Survivor".   I love them all but I felt like our designs needed a l...

Like the designs, I think our store needed a little bit of TLC.  In the beginning I tried to get as much done as possible and then finesse it later.  In my head, I don’t know anything about building an online store.  Of course, I did some reading and looking at others...

I love our BraveHoods, I really do.  But I felt like we needed something more, so I started asking around to see what we should add to our offerings.  We decided the first thing we would add is some t-shirts.  I love how the new designs look on the tshirts. It is so co...
