Giveaway Time!!!!

I would love to introduce you to a blog friend of mine. Here name is Rachel.

Rachel & Her friend Andrea just started a new business together.

Here is a little bit of information about Andrea & Rachel.

We have been great friends since 7th grade!! Our memories together include chats at our lockers, pop quizzes. youth group, sleepovers, P.E. (yuck!), boys, primping in between classes (mostly to impress those boys!), and our high school Senior trip. We've been friends through both high school and college graduation, both of our weddings, and three pregnancies. Most importantly, though, we've shared laughter, tears, prayer, and support. We thank God for the friendship He's given us!

Why Twenty 6?

When we decided to start a business/blog together we thought long and hard about a name that would represent our long-standing friendship. We found a scripture passage that sums up our feelings perfectly:

Proverbs 20:6

"Many can say they are loyal friends, but who can find one who is truly reliable?"

Hence, the name Twenty 6!!

What's in your Etsy shop?

Both of us have always been very "girly"! We love feminine and pretty things. Andrea has had fun exploring the world of "girl stuff" since she had Alaina in 2009.

We sell a variety of things that girls ages 1 to 99 will enjoy. You will find adorable handmade bows as well as personalized bow holders which are hand-painted by Andrea's sister, Lisa Dickson. We are so excited to share her wonderful artistic ability with you!

Twenty 6 Shop continues to be a work in progress. We have some exciting additions planned, so check back often for new products and great sales!

We can't tell you how excited we are to share this friendship journey with you. We hope that Twenty 6 Blog is a warm and welcoming place to all who visit, and we are looking forward to meeting many new friends!!

The Edge of Divine

"The Edge of the Divine"

Sandi Patty has won 39 Dove Awards and millions of records sold, the unforgettable voice of Sandi Patty returns with "The Edge of the Divine." Not only is there a CD but there is also a book. A book that talks about where possibilities meet with God's faithfulness .

I was asked to review this book and honestly I had no idea what it was about.

A Little background on Sanid herself. When I was a younger girl i remember hearing Sandi Patti songs and music played and then I remember some "talk" that she was going thru a scandalous divorce (aren't they all) ??? She had an affair with one of her background vocalist and it was at the height of her singing career. She has made lot's of decisions and choices that have led up to this book.

This book was not a book I would have ever just picked up to read. It talks about her struggles with marriage, God but mostly with her weight. I am at a place where i'm needing to make some choices or my weight is going to start affecting me.

THis book made me realize a few things but the jist of it is but my the grace of God there go I. She talks so much about God's amazing amazing Grace!

She is no different than any of us, she is a women who has struggled with weight, marriage, affairs and is open and real about it. The book is an easy read with real life situations, and stories.

I have a few copies that I have been offered to give away :) If you would like one leave me a comment and I will pick a winner!

I would tell anyone that they should read this book and see a Godly women's perspective on this journey called life.

Pretty Please!!!

Hey guys this is so beyond simple.

My husband Benjamin Scott posted a video on Youtube and needs you to simply click the link and watch him sing... not to hard. I don't think you even need to watch the whole thing , however I think you would want to!

If you would leave a comment that would be awesome too!

They are narrowed down to the top 5 with the most views and then the production staff at The Fish 104.7 will pick a winner to open up for the Celebrate Freedom Concert in September. We would also win $10,000 for our new church that we just started, and to say that this would help would be an understatement! We would also win $10,000 for our family which would also be a huge help right now!

You can go watch everyday (I believe), but really the goal is to spread it to others who have never heard it so if you could repost the link to your friends that would really help!

Thank you all so much!!!

Here is the Link to the Youtube Video
