Raffle for a good cause!

Blossom Leigh Boutique design group on eBay has come together for a great cause! My niece Courtney is turning 16 years old this summer and is now old enough to walk in the 3 day 60 mile walk against breast cancer. She has decided she wants to walk and donate money to research in lieu of a sweet 16 party! She has a heart of gold.
Remember - Everyone deserves a lifetime!
This is a link to her page on the 3-day walk.

Now our group BLB Boutique has decided to help her raise money by donating our time and expertise in making custom boutique items. We have 3 prizes to give away and are selling raffle tickets for $10 a piece. These tickets are numbered 1-100 and we will ONLY sell 100 tickets. Tickets are available for purchase from May 15th to June 15th. On July 1st we will draw 3 names. The first name drawn is the grand prize winner, the 2nd name is the 2nd prize, and the 3rd is the 3rd prize.

I am unbelievably hooked.........

on the Twilight Series. I cannot put these books down!

Honestly, I have never read anything so captivating! I am on book 3 of 4 and I just started reading the series 1 week ago! Last night, hubby and I watched the Twilight movie. It was a very good movie, but it just skims the main points of the first book. You HAVE to read the books!
