dunk

Today is my office's final fundraiser for Operation Blessing and our attempt to build a water well for a community in Africa. In our last fundraiser we raised well over the $1800 it takes to build a well, so now we are working to build a second well. Today's activities include a dunk tank with our management team. Tickets are being sold for chances to dunk your favorite, or least favorite manager :) Unfortunately today is the coldest day we have had this week so I am hoping the weather warms up a bit before the activities begin this afternoon. Good Luck to all the managers and let's raise some money!

fun sized

I really like fun sized candy. I am not supposed to have a lot of sugar and really I don't crave sweets too much, they usually make my tummy hurt but there is just something about the tiny little fun sized treats, they are just the right size. I can eat one, totally get my sugar fill and still not feel horrible. Who ever came up with this wonderful idea is definitely one of my hero's... Krystal + fun sized candy = legendary :)

bedazzled

I finally figured out how to bedazzle my blog... YAY!!!

operation blessing

Every year my office raises money for an international mission, this year we are combining our efforts to raise $1800 to build a water well in Africa through a program with Operation Blessing. In an attempt to raise this money we held a silent auction bake sale and live auction of baked goods in our office. Each department was asked to bring a few desserts to put into the silent auction and then the best from each department was entered in the live auction. Now I am on the giving committee for my office and we only have 25 employees so as a committee we were hoping to raise about $600 from this fundraiser and then hold another few events through out the year to raise the rest of the money... but let's just say we wont be needing to hold any other events. The auction style fundraiser was such a huge hit, we had banana bread being sold for $45 and zucchini cake that went for over $200. I cant event put into words my excitement. I have never doubted that I work with phenomenal people but today just reminded me how blessed I am to be working with such thoughtful and1 generous people. We just received the total of what we raised today... $2500... WHAT A BLESSING :)
