Welcome To On The Avenue Home Decor & Gifts. Years ago my husband and I bought our first home. It was a very old home and needed a lot of tender love and care. I had the vision of what I wanted and my husband was able to help me bring it to life. As we began building and creating items for our home, we had another idea..... What if we started our own business and offered our creations to others who share the same love and passion for decorating as we do. Here we are, 17 years later, sharing our creations and designs with friends everywhere.

Thursday, April 5th

Good Morning OTA Friends! So I am getting this post out much earlier today and apologize for the crazy schedule with all of our post this past couple weeks. I have debated whether or not to post this because it is somewhat personal, but we thought it would be a good idea to let you all know what is going on around our crazy home. The Ugly Cancer Monster has struck our family once again and I was diagnosed with Breast Cancer this past Friday. We have been so blessed because we found it early! We have a 99% chance of beating this which is awesome! Of course there will be surgery and treatment which doesn't sound very fun to me, but all is well. It is amazing how much we appreciate the great things in life and the things that really matter when we are giving hard trials. I am so grateful for the greatest husband in the world. He has been amazing and is truly my best friend. My kids are awesome! A few tears were shed when we told them, but they are back to normal and loving me more than I thought they could. I have never had so many hugs, kisses and I Love You Mom's. The rest of our family and friends have been awesome. We have been in great spirits, but I won't lie, I have had moments of tears, but that is usually because of the sweet and kinds things that have been done and said, not the cancer itself.

The reason I wanted to share this with you is to let you know we will be going on as usual. If it does take us a little longer to return your call or email you, it may be because we are dealing with this crazy trial. We will try and keep things normal, but we may have a hickup every now and then. We will continue to post sale items every day and continue to get the orders out as quickly as possible. Please continue to order as usual!! We appreciate all of you for supporting our business and purchasing our creations.

Whew, Ok, enough of the cancer story, let's get on to something fun.

  2. Mandy I just read this and I am so sorry. I was out of town over spring break and not keeping up with things as I normally do. My heart goes out to you and your family. I agree with you; ladies please get your mammograms as it could save your life. Breat cancer runs in my family and this past year when another aunt was diagnosed with breast cancer my doctor had me do the breast cancer gene test. I thank God that I do not have the gene as so many of my aunts and grandmother did. I will be praying for you daily as you recover taking it one day at a time. Remember to lean on God's strength and He will carry you through. Love you girl!
