I am feeling the love right now. Deep, intense, inspiring, sick love. All because of James and Jake and all because of you. (continue reading, I’m giving something away. geeze.)
Next Sunday is our March for Babies walk and to say that I am excited would be a total understatement. Honestly, if someone were to say “hey Beth, would you rather see Brad Pitt with his shirt off weeding your garden or just be excited for this week prior to the walk,” I’m pretty sure I would take this week. (although, I really do need my garden weeded.)
There is nothing MORE BEAUTIFUL than watching our numbers grow. Our team goal this year is $5,000, right now we are at $4,103. I get a lump in my throat just thinking about the love that is being poured over us. It feels warm and cozy, what a gift.
Adding to my excitement is that I designed our team t-shirts this weekend and I am loving them. I can’t wait to see them in person. I want to thank the One2One Network for sponsoring this year’s team shirts. THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU. (and my friend Amy for giving us a GREAT price!) Having met the women behind One2One, let me tell you that their hearts are big and their passion is deep and them sponsoring Team James and Jake just doesn’t surprise me at all. It’s just the way they are.
SO, because I feel like celebrating I thought I would do a strange giveaway. It’s strange because I’m not even sure anyone would even want one of these, but I know that the thought of people wearing these special things across the country makes me so happy. And the thought that some of you MAY want one and that I am able to share these with you, well, that makes me happy and it fills me with love and THAT is what this week is about.
Today, I am giving away a Team James and Jake team shirt to five lucky (in my opinion) winners. I know it’s not some big labeled item, but it’s really special, I think. So, whether you want to wear them while gardening or sleeping or you cut the sleeves off and wear it with a headband and leg warmers, it makes no difference to me.
Would you like a sneak preview?
Here’s the front: (I hope)
and here’s the back: (I hope)
Why am I doing this? I happen to know that there are so many people that would love to walk with us on Sunday but they can’t because they live too far or just can’t make it, I also know that there are many people who love James and Jake and would love to have something tangible, so, if you want one…just leave me a comment…right here. And if only five of you want one, that’s okay with me.
This giveaway ends Thursday night at 9 CST, the winners will be announced on Friday, April 24th.
Feel like pitching in? Donate here!
One last thing…I’m working on a project that is both scary and exciting…be sure to check back tonight. k?
