An Exciting Drawing and a review

Posted in Book Reviews

I am entering another drawing contest.  I really don't normally do these but I am so excited about the grand prize of a collection of the Ballentyne books that is being offered.

Life in a Shoe is hosting a giveaway of Vision Forum's exciting new adventure series, Ballantyne books.

I love to read Kim's blog over at Life in a Shoe.  Having 3 girls of my own, I appreciate the fact that she loves having 8 girls!  I was drawn to her site because of a debate, and I am so glad!  She tackles the tough stuff and she sprinkles in lots of laughter too!

I also wanted to mention that I love Vision Forum, the suppliers of the giveaway.  I just ordered the entire set of the Jonathan Park audio series thanks to an unexpected monetary gift! (Thanks Aunt Norma and Uncle Vance and Alpheus! The girls even pitched in the money given to them to buy this!)  Of course this is for our science/Bible curriculum, but it is so much more!  Tomorrow I have a long drive with the girls and we are all looking forward to listening for the two hour round trip!  Yes, we mark off time by how many J. Park's we can listen to on the way somewhere!  Please click  the link above and go check them out if you have not heard of them already!

Now my next goals are to get started collecting The Beautiful Girlhood books from them!  We also love their G.A. Henty books that we have purchased!

I hope you are all having a wonderful summer!  In Him, Eva

Thank you for posting about this - I love your enthusiasm!
Your blog is beautiful. I clicked over to Mamma Designs, but it's not working. Too bad; I would love to see more of her work if it looks anything like your blog!

I seek to glorify God and enjoy Him forever! I seek to be a loving, godly wife. I also seek to win the hearts of my children to God. I am thankful for homeschooling and I pray that is never taken away in America!
