Merry Fruitcake, You'll Be Nuts After This Post! A Bit Loooong...

Christmas is only
one week away!



Today I worked
on some more Christmas
crafts with the kids.



If I had my new camera
I would show you.



Finally ordered it.
Should be here
in time for
Christmas. :)



Have officially
been without a digital
camera for over a month now.
It has been really hard for
this photo taking fool!



I have taken a few photos
with my old 35mm camera,
but I haven't gotten
the film developed.



But back to the handmade
crafts subject.



I'm proud that we have
made so many of our
gifts this Christmas.


I love gifts with meaning.



I think most of the
new gifts
we did buy
are helping those
that need clean water.


That makes me very
happy to think about.



Here is a great video.







Only a few more hours to pick a winner here!



Go now! And give the gift of life this Christmas.







Forget about going shopping
last minute this weekend.
It will be stressful
anyhow.



Donate a gift in someone's
honor and e-mail or print one of these awesome cards !



It will make your loved ones
smile.



And if it doesn't.



Then they probably
really deserved
fruitcake.



Oh, they like fruitcake better!?
Then they are of the small percent
that actually do like fruitcake.



Word Geek is one of them too.



Do I have proof that most people don't like fruitcake ???



Nope.



But anyhow...

Today

We are going to build a well.
You are going to build a well.

Because we can.
Because you can.


How?


Right now sweet, generous, creative and caring women from all over the country are sewing, knitting, painting, shopping, blogging, praying.


Donating.


Over 100 items.


Handmade and heartfelt happiness.


Starting
December 14th
and ending
December 18th


Project 320
will be holding a virtual raffle.


10 prize bundles.


Each $10 donation to the well
earns one virtual ticket.


You get to choose how many "tickets" to buy
and which prize package you want to win.


On December 21st we will "draw" ten winners.


But most of all,
we will celebrate the victory.


The promise of clean water for a village.


Life.


Are you excited?


You should be!!!!


Because it is going to be awesome.
Grab a button.
Spread the word.

Clean Water

Such a simple thing we take for granted.

A LOT of people will die today because they don't have clean water.



SAVE A LIFE!

How AMAZING it is to be able to tell loved ones you saved a life today.

$10 = Clean Water for 1 person for 10 YEARS!

Finish up your Christmas shopping with my gift tags, variety of Water4Christmas items, a beautiful necklace, and the money will go to giving clean water to those in Liberia, West Africa!

This isn't the last time you will see me write about water. ;) Stay tuned!

What Would Jesus Buy?

Have you ever thought about what Jesus would buy?




I first watched What Would Jesus Buy? around Christmas last year. I highly recommend this film to EVERYONE, watch it with the kids.

The meaning of Christmas seems to get lost amongst stuff.

Very sad, but very true.



Remember JESUS is the true reason for the season.




This Christmas give a gift to save a life, or two, or ten!

You will be so happy you did. :)
