Dry Idea Giveaway and Sweepstakes!
As part of the Purex Insiders program, I was recently sent a sample of Dry Idea AdvancedDry antiperspirant and deodorant. This 24 hour protection is hypo-allergenic, contains vitamin E, and is their fast drying Microcotton formula. I received a 3.25 oz roll-on in unscented. It is also available in other scents-Powder Fresh and Cotton Dry, and in Clear Gel or Invisible Solid. Although I usually would prefer a solid, scented deodorant, Dry Idea AdvancedDry worked great-I stayed dry and fresh all day running around doing errands in 95 degree weather!

Review~Creation Illustrated magazine
Creation Illustrated magazine has been called by some readers the 'Christian answer to National Geographic'. It has been published quarterly for 19 years by a homeschooling family! Here is the Mission Statement from the website:
"Our purpose is to share the wonders of God's creation. By revealing fresh insights of His infinite wisdom, gentle touch, undeniable justice, redeeming love, and flawless design, pure truth shall bring renewed peace. Each part of this publication is offered as a reprieve from the daily rigors of life so that all can look to the future with unbridled gratitude and hope."
My family was sent four copies of Creation Illustrated to review. I must say, I was impressed right off the bat! The covers are thick and glossy, and the pages inside are full of gorgeous photos!! Each edition of Creation Illustrated is divided into three sections:
*Creation Illustrated in Nature
*Creation Illustrated in Scripture
*Creation Illustrated in Living
Besides the beautiful pictures, Creation Illustrated includes stories, lessons, poetry, recipes, scripture, contests and more! I really liked the instructional guide at the back of each edition, making this magazine perfect for homeschooling or family devotionals. Creation Illustrated is for all ages, and everyone enjoyed looking and reading. This is not a magazine you toss out when you are finished reading it!
Right now, you can get a free sample issue at the Creation Illustrated website. Subscription prices are:
1 year (4 issues): $19.95
2 years (8 issues): $37.95
3 years (12 issues): $53.95
Also, you will save $5 on your subscription if you pay by credit card. There are shipping fees of $5/year for Canadian and $10/year for foreign subscriptions.

Book Review and Contest~Angel Eyes by Shannon Dittemore
I'm not one to usually read Young adult or paranormal-themed books, but I thought it was time to get out of my comfort zone and try reading something a little different (not Amish fiction). Angel Eyes by Shannon Dittemore is the story of Brielle, who had been going to school in the city when tragedy struck her best friend. She moved back to the small town she grew up in to continue High School, wracked with grief and guilt. She struggles to get through each day, always thinking about her best friend and also her mother, who passed away when she was younger.
Jake is the new boy at school, and there is something strange about him-he always shows up wherever she is, and he's warm-literally. His skin is very warm to the touch. She is drawn to him, and soon discovers there are angels and demons among them. Together Brielle and Jake fight for what is good, as Brielle discovers a deeper faith and healing.
Angel Eyes kept me interested through the entire story. Although its not what I would normally choose to read, it was better than I expected! This would be a good book for an older teenager or young adult. To read more about author Shannon Dittemore, go to http://www.shannondittemore.com/.
