Look what arrived at my door! (CSN Stores Review)

Ohh soooo exciting!

I was recently given the opportunity to review the wonderful CSN Stores! And one of their many great products from their over 200 stores. I was so excited that they chose me to do this. Who doesn't love a gift for no special occasion at all? 

For my review I chose none other than Fiesta Dinnerware. In Peacock and Tangerine!

They arrived very quickly and safely. I couldn't wait to get them out!

Are they beautiful or what? Just look at those yummy colors!

CSN Stores service was top notch! Seriously! They confirmed my order via email, they notifed me when my order shipped, which was very quickly within 3 days. And my order arrived quickly too, I had my dishes in 4 days of shipping!

And the dishes, of course are great too. Very good quality and well made. Fiesta makes tons of dishware from glasses to silverware and many accessories to match. But what I love most about Fiesta is their many fun and bright colors!

Now my new lovely dishes get to hang with these old lovely dishes! One big happy family!

If you haven't been over to CSN Stores I suggest you go check them out. I'm talking tons of stuff over there! Thank you CSN Stores!

New - Chosen Adoption Necklace

Check this out friends! We have partnered with Worthy of the Prize Ministries in their quest to help families that are currently in the process of adopting a child.

We present to you the Chosen Adoption Necklace. Hand stamped with a small heart and the word "chosen". The name of the child  is then stamped around the edge if desired.

For every Chosen necklace sold we will donate $10 to the adoption agency of a family trying to raise money for their adoption! Learn more about the families here. Even if you don't order the Chosen Necklace we will donate 10% of your order total to one of the families if you mention their name upon checkout!

Use the chosen necklace to represent your relationship with Christ. As you were chosen to enter into His family as adopted sons and daughters through faith in His son Jesus Christ! Have it stamped with your own name or with no name at all.

Worthy of the Prize Ministries has also created the Chosen Child Adoption Band. They are donating 50% of the proceeds from this band to these families!

Update: 8/2010

You can now also purchase the Chosen Child {Adoption T-Shirts}! $5 from each shirt will also benefit these families!

Jeremiah 29:11...My grandmother ALWAYS quoted the verse to me all through my childhood. It has stuck with me through good times and bad, and I have it framed on my wall next to my door, as a small reminder of the hope He gives us. I LOVE DCB, and that necklace is so beautiful!

This Little Piggy Went to the Gym TV Interview

Did you miss it?  This Little Piggy Went to the Gym on TV.  Well here he is in his interview with the 700 Club! (Pause the music playing at the bottom of the blog first.)



And read the article here at the 700 Club.

Just a quick reminder.

Hey there! Dave, aka This Little Piggy Went to the Gym will be on The 700 Club's Skinny Wednesday! Tune in tomorrow! Check your local listings for the time and channel. I know ABC Family also airs this show. So you may be able to find it there. I've got my DVR all set! Be excited with us!

(CLOSED) David Crowder Band CD - Giveaway

Ready for some fun?

I'm sure you've heard of the David Crowder Band! Yeah? Well, if not, where have you been? Church Music is their latest CD which actually came out in Sept/09 but it's what I've been listening to lately. It's in my truck and I crank it up!

There is a lot going on, on this 17 track CD! It's dramatic, mysterious and romantic while at the same time uplifting and motivating. It's also a bit dance with an occasional 80's feel to it. I love it!

I've been asking myself, "self, how can I use my tiny little blog to further His Kingdom?". And though I don't have a final answer for myself on that one, I figured a little Church Music wouldn't hurt!

One lucky winner will get their very own brand new copy of David Crowder Band Church Music! Yup, it's sitting right here ready to ship!

And coming along with it will be this new he loves hand stamped necklace pictured below! Inspired by their song How He Loves. Sterling silver and features a tiny cross and "he loves" hand stamped along the bottom.

To Enter: This time it's gonna be simple! Leave us a comment and let us know what your favorite Bible Verse is. And if there is a reason behind it being your fave tell us that too. That's it! Good Luck!

Open to US residents only through Thursday, May 20th. Winner will be announced this Friday! Make sure we have a way to contact you if you should win.
