Yesterday I was reading my blogging friend Samantha's post, and she is on a mission to bring back the true meaning of Christmas. A lot of people get lost in the idea of shopping, gifts, food, time off work, etc. that we forget the true meaning of the holiday season. This year, Samantha is adopting two families that are in need of help. Without us, they will not be able to afford to provide Christmas to their families this year. Head on over to her blog, Walking With God, for more information on these two families. Right away I contacted Samantha and told her I wanted to help her! There is nothing better in my eyes then spreading around the holiday cheer. Now this may seem a bit early, but remember we need time to collect the gifts and get the gifts to these families. If you are willing, or able to help us on this mission, email me at jamiesorensen27@yahoo.com and I will get you in contact with Samantha. Together we can make a difference and help these families create memories together this year! God Bless

Happy Tuesday everyone! Some exciting news....I registered for my last semester of college yesterday! After I finish the last 4 weeks of this semester, I only have 4 classes left! I cannot wait to be done, I have really struggled with motivation these past couple months! Now I can only hope and pray I find a job afterwards!
So today is challenge day. The challenge was to do something to support a cause or issue you really care about. This was easy for me because it is the season of giving. I have always loved to give to others, it makes me feel good. There are a couple different things going on at the school I work at. One is called Making Spirits Bright. They are collecting items for families in need. The other is a food drive. The kids have been working so hard to raise 500lbs of food for the the upcoming holiday. I donated some money to a fund to help my co worker re-purchase her Thanksgiving meal. She had boughten it, but lost power from the storm this past weekend and it all went bad. She isn't able to afford to buy another meal, so my co workers and I are raising money to help buy her family another Thanksgiving dinner.
I am halfway done with the ten weeks of challenges now! I have to say they really have expanded my horizon and made things fun and interesting! The new challenge is: Eat or drink something that brings you back to childhood memories! What were some of your favorite foods when you were younger? Should be fun :)
