A couple of Fridays ago, Mom and I attended a hat party for my Aunt. She is undergoing chemo for breast cancer, and, of course, lost all her hair. I thought such a party was a great idea. The local support group, SHOC (survivors helping others cope), do this quite frequently. With little warning about the upcoming event and no time to go any where other than Wartburg, I had to find something in town. Then Mom had the idea to wear our hats :) It was all in fun because, afterall, it was a "hat party". I found us a couple of huge sun hats at the Family Dollar. I felt like I was attending the Kentucky Derby. While I was waiting in the front yard for Mom to pick me up, several cars drove by and honked. I was looking good ;) (or so I thought til I saw the pictures, whew, I got to get to work on this diet business).
Turns out we were the only ones to wear our hats??? We had a great time. Aunt Diana is such a blessing to me and I've been bless to attend church with her over the past several years. After she opened all her hats, scarves, and various other items, we gathered around her for prayer. She has such a great spirit and attitude.
Here are a few pictures from the 'party'.
