Fundraiser!

Hey everyone! I have started a fundraiser and it is called "Nate's Ears". It is for a man (husband and father of four) who lost his hearing and is trying to raise the money to get cochlear implants. We are doing a community yard sale, bake sale (cupcakes donated by locals), hot dogs (buns donated by Dunford Bakery), lemonade, and will even have Pop the Clown making balloon animals and doing magic tricks for all who stop by. It is going to be Saturday, August 25th, from 10 am until the party dies down. If you are unable to make it to this event and still want to help, please go to the closest Mountain America Credit Union and make your donation to the Nathan Rasmussen Cochlear Implant fund, account #9463956. Give the gift of hope to a man who well deserves it!! Thanks all, every bit counts!

RECENT READ

Coexist
Keegan's Chronicles Book One

This book, by Julia Crane, was such a page turner! I can't tell you how much I loved it. Keegan, a 16 year old elf with the power to go invisible, has been waiting for her "Chosen" her entire life. Traditionally the elfin people have to wait until their 18th birthday to meet their future spouse, or Chosen, but things change when war interferes with your every day life. The battle against light and dark interrupts life for all supernatural beings. Spending a magical weekend with Rourk and her parents leaves Keegan happier than she ever has been in her life. Rourk is everything she had imagined him to be plus some. He adores her and their bond goes deeper than their souls. And then the Great Battle. Death and separation. Keegan wakes up not knowing who Rourk is, no spark of recognition or pull of their bond. Rourk's heart is crushed, there is no one else for him, Keegan is his Chosen. Can he win her heart the old fashioned way? I recommend this book for any lover of fantasy and romance. I can't wait to read the next in the series!
