A Season for giving

Christmas time is so fun because I love to give presents. I sometimes like to buy too much for my children but I have done a great job at resisiting this year. Instead of spending spending on things I know they dont need we are trying to find different ways to bless others. We are making some homemade gifts and baking gifts! :)

This year our church is buying goats for families in Haiti! It only costs $40 per goat and provides a huge blessing to a family! I am hoping we hit our goal and get enough money to bless many families in need! :) So if any of you reading this wants to help buy a goat please let me know and leave an email addy in the comment section! :)

What will you be doing to be a giver this year? How can you be the hands and feet of Jesus?

We decided as a family to buy gifts through Heifer International for our extended families and parents this year. The girls have had so much fun looking through the catalog and picking out animals to give. It's also wonderful to watch their minds and hearts grow to include children across the world!

Wills generally require the signatures of at least two witnesses who are not beneficiaries or spouses of beneficiaries. If the will is not witnessed in accordance with legal requirements, it may be declared invalid, meaning your estate would be distributed according to intestacy laws, which may not align with your wishes. It’s important to follow the witnessing procedures exactly as outlined in your jurisdiction to ensure the will is legally enforceable. Chan...

Win some Sweet Andy's Cookies

A big thank you to Andy who sent me some amazing cookies to try to conduct my review. :) All opinions expressed are 100 % mine and I was not paid for this review. About Sweet Andy's Cookies: The “Thank You” Cookie In 2009, Andrew (Sweet Andy) found himself in a position like so many others at that time in our past; the economy was quickly spiraling downward and he had left his job in the financial services industry. Although Andy had an MBA in Banking and Finance and had even written a book entitled, “A Guide to Taking Control of Your Investments”, he found himself to be disenchanted with the financial industry and left to pursue “other work.” The “other work” that Andrew pursued was with the Church and did not provide financial support for the family. During this time Andy and his wife, Lissa, struggled to find other forms of income. They did what they could for themselves and their five children but often it was not enough. But there were...
