Project 320 Giveaway

two years ago during advent, my kids gave up their weekly commissions for doing chores to give money towards buying a well.  we had been studying africa in school and it was the perfect activity to go along with our school work.

two years later, my kids are still talking about it.  

we have clean water. 
we have access to water all. the. time.
it makes their hearts sad {mine too} that there are children dying because they don't have access to clean water.
something we take for granted every. single. day.

so last week, when i saw mel's post i KNEW i wanted, no needed to do something

i had started to collect some of my favorite things over the last spring and summer to do a giveaway for my birthday or blogiversary 

but then summer came, summer went, summer took over my life
and these items sat in my closet

i knew there would be a time to do a giveaway 
i just didn't know what it would be
then God placed the perfect opportunity for me to participate in project 320
here is what i am giving away in my favorite things bundle:

 coffee cozy {made by me}

 zippered pouch {made by me}
oh how i love zippered pouches
i use them for everything from kids toys, to holding my lip gloss, pens, etc.. in my purse

 a thirty one gifts mini organizer

 my very favorite tea... candy cane lane
i drink year round
its the tea that got me hooked on tea

 a vera bradley handbag

 a starbucks water cup or as it is also referred to the "adult sippy cup"
a sonic gift card for $10... i love me some sonic soda
