Somehow my date got messed up on my ChipIn widget and the raffle ended early. No big deal! That just means I get to determine the winner of the captive opal necklace sooner!
For those who entered, your odds were very good because there were only 9 of you. Thanks so much! Between you all you raised $64, which will go to Sufficient Grace Ministries.
Here is the video of my husband, Anthony, drawing the winner! Don't mind me making sound effects. I do that often. lol
Congratulations to Joye at The Joyeful Journey! You won the necklace! Hooray! (Joye, after watching the video I realized I misspelled your last name. I missed a 'r'. Sorry! That bothers me because spelling is a pet peeve of mine. Just had to point that out since I noticed it.)
I will be sending the necklace out to you tomorrow to your Paypal address. If you'd prefer a different address, please let me know ASAP at caring4carleigh@yahoo.com
Again, thank you to all who participated!!
Heading in the right direction!

Yeah Joye!!!! I love her! Thanks Holly...this was so sweet of you! You are so giving, and many will be blessed by your generosity. And thank you to those who gave to support Sufficient Grace! Bless you all....(all nine of you =)) and especially sweet Holly and family!
Love to you,

And...I love the sound effects...I do that too! Just makes things more fun! =)
Oh I am so glad that Joye won the necklace!!! I love her.
Glad that some money was raised for Kelly's Ministry.
Hope your hubby had a good Father's Day.
Love, Linds @ Truthful Tidbits
Congrats to Joye! Love the sound effects too ;-) You two are so cute.
congrats Joye!! Holly I have to say when I heard you talk I was surprised. I expected you to have a prissy voice LOL. No offence =] You just surprised me! Loving the sound effects!
No offense taken Jessica! ;) It's funny how we all picture each other and then we are surprised when it's not what we thought! I actually have a deep voice. My voice on the video is a little higher than I normally talk IRL. When I get excited or real friendly I talk in a higher voice. When I'm casual it is lower. I can see where you might think I'd have a prissy voice. I think people might think smaller person=higher voice but that's not the case for me!!
Congratulations Joye!!
Congrats to the winner! Holly you are such an awesome inspiration and really know how to get people involved. I don't usually enter your little raffles but I love reading them. I really loved reading all your gifts on your birthday give away! such a fun way to share.
I won!! Yippeeeee!! This was such a wonderful thing for you to do, Holly!! Thank you for your generous and giving spirit!! I pray your family is blessed along with Sufficient Grace Ministries!!
Oh and i do love the sound effects and the fact that you wrote down my first name too!!
Love ya!
Hello! I just wanted to let you know about my blog giveaways going on now!!!! Entry is easy, just leave a comment on the specific post that you want to enter for.

Refer a follower and I will add you an additional 10 times. These can be split between different giveaways. Have questions? Give me a shout!!!!
Yay!! I'm glad that you had such a turn out. I had every intention of joining in and donating....and then I forgot. Seems if I don't write things down I tend to forget unless I do them right then and there....and it has only gotten worse since Noah's passing.
Kelly, if you read this, please let me know how to and I will definitely send a donation for your cause. It truly is a wonderful thing, the ministry you help provide.
HOlly, I read your comment today on my blog and I was moved to tears. It's true, our experiences are so very similar....and in a way they should be since most of "my" wonderful ideas came from you! :-) Everytime you share something about your time with Carleigh I am struck at our similarities....The funeral was such a very hard day...and, at the same time, I had such a peace that day and there were actually very few tears. The tears didn't flow so freely until the next day. And then they lasted for a few weeks.
I wish I could be more like you and just accept what has happened but it is so hard. I did always think that if something like this should happen to me that I would be so devastated and unable to cope...Turns out I was wrong on that though. God has been such a stronghold for me and has placed such amazing friends in my life through this in you, PJ, and Misty and now Jennifer too! I count myself so blessed to have you all as sisters in this journey and can only pray that we will continue to grow in our relationships as time goes on.
I love you all so much! God is good and He knew what he was doing when he put us in each other's lives.
BTW....Now it was MY turn to leave you a post within your comments!!
