This week has been pretty stressful for me.  So I&#8217;m just glad its over.  I have my honey home with me for a few days.

Let me tell you about the BIG one first.  I was lucky enough to get invited to participate in a VERY neat charity collaboration kit called <a href=\"http:\/\/www.shabbypickledesigns.com\/boutique\/manufacturers.php?manufacturerid=51\">&#8220;Forester&#8217;s Wish&#8221;<\/a>.  Forester is a little boy with brain cancer who just got back from a magical Disney World vacation thanks to Make A Wish.  You can read more about his story <a href=\"http:\/\/thebradburns.blogspot.com\/\">here<\/a>.  All proceeds from this kit are going straight to Forester&#8217;s family.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.shabbypickledesigns.com\/boutique\/manufacturers.php?manufacturerid=51\"><span style=\"font-weight:bold;\"><span class=\"Apple-style-span\"  style=\"font-size:x-large;\">&#8220;Forester&#8217;s Wish&#8221;<\/span><\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.shabbypickledesigns.com\/boutique\/manufacturers.php?manufacturerid=51\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/i84.photobucket.com\/albums\/k17\/tcigt\/all_fw_preview_large-1.jpg\" width=\"540\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>This is so cool you guys!
