Excellent Rummage Sale Finds

I found a garage sale up the street from me and they were selling toys only. A 10 year old little girl decided to sell her toys and ask her friends to help donate their toys so they could raise money for Lung Cancer Foundation because she lost her 1st grade teacher to the disease. HOW GREAT!!!

The prices were low so I let them keep my change because I could have gotten all of this for $8 but I spent $10 instead because of the cause. I got 6 toy cars which all area a little different but 3 are from the movie Cars, dress shoes for my daughter, fun beads, a neat hopscotch/twister outside game, and some lacing tiles. Both my kids were happy and excited!

I have determined that I would have never have purchased all of that but since it was for CANCER and you all know I want to KICK CANCER IN THE FACE I bought a few more things for my kiddos. :)

My sister has reached 90% of her goal in her Light the Night to fight Leukemia. Go read my family story and feel free to donate in honor of Bette Norden, MY MOMMA! MISS HER SO MUCH!

"The Reading Game" Review and Giveaway

Description: The first book in The Reading Game learn-to-read series tells the story of a skunk without a stripe who is rejected by the other skunks but finds acceptance among some cats and becomes their defender. It’s told in rhyme, is beautifully illustrated, and is 32 pages long. It will be the first book the student reads, and there are five more to follow in this groundbreaking learn to read program. Each of The Reading Game's six stories is told using just thirty new words. These are broken down into six sets of five words. The student learns to read each set of five words by playing a simple word matching game. Frequent exposure through play hard wires these words into long-term memory. Rote learning is transformed into a fast-paced game with a winner every few seconds. After completing Skunk, Game 1, the student has learned five words (can, cat, is, me, not). Playing Game 2 adds an additional five w...

Timeless Truth Bible - Blogger Review #timelesstruths #biblegram #bible #Christianbookstagram

About this Bible: The Christian faith is founded upon an unchanging and unceasing confession: that “Jesus Christ is Lord to the glory of God the Father” (Philippians 2:11). This is the confession upon which all our hope, and all our joy, rests. The Timeless Truths Bible will encourage you in this truth through the wisdom of those who came before us with: Devotional notes and commentary from trusted theologians and pastors from the second century up to the twentieth to stir your affections.

My Review: I have a full house often being a pastor and now that we have a bonus daughter with us she is the blessed one to receive this Bible. She has been desiring a bible to take notes in so when she saw margins she was pretty excited. Then with the leather she was more exci...
