Red Envelope Campaign

Red Envelope Campaign

I got a heads up about this from Kim.

Here is a link to the Red Envelope Campaign.

The idea is simple. Bombard the White House with red envelopes to remind President Obama that the majority of Americans do not support his abortion policy.

You can participate easily, as often as you want. Just send an empty red envelope to the address below. Don't have a red envelope? Make one out of construction paper. Or make 50. Or use the link below to buy them from Amazon. Address them to:

President Barack Obama
The White House
1600 Pennsylvania Ave NW
Washington, DC 20500

Seal it and write the following message on the back:

This envelope represents one child who died in abortion. It is empty because that life was not allowed to offer anything to the world.

Life begins with conception.

Stamp it, mail it, and invite others to do the same.

Recycling Clothing













This is a sweater that has been in the back of my closet for a few years. It has turned out to be gorgeous yarn. I'm not sure if I want to put it up for sale or make goodies out of it to sell. It's an acrylic blend. Any ideas? The little balls Chelsea made for her Barbie's sewing room. She has rolls of fabric, a little sewing machine and tables for her Barbie's sewing room :)

Count Your Blessings Monday


Down On The Farm

I am thankful I had all my children home this weekend. I loved going to sleep at night knowing my family was all under one roof and I could protect them.

I am grateful for my husband. He has loved me through everything. Through our oldest moving to Maryland to making sure everyday was eventful this holiday break.

We had a blast these past two weeks. The younger children told me tonight that the day Audrey came was better than Santa coming. I miss her so much and pray everyday that she will move back to the area. I love you Audrey Elizabeth.

I am grateful for Audrey's boyfriend. He drove her up her to see us. I know he had a blast and I know he was sad (yes Tommy I seen the tears) when they left. I love you to Tommy.

And most of all I am grateful for my Savior Lord Jesus Christ for making this a wonderful holiday season. We learned so much about Jesus this season.
