Helping a family in need! The Maves family.

Hi everyone!

Tonight I bring you something close to my heart. It is so close to my heart because I would be beside myself with distraught trying to keep everything together and if it had happened with one of my pregnancies I would love the support and help from others.

I went to school with Doug. He was kind enough to help me off the track during a track meet when there was and awful accident and I sprained my ankle pretty bad. Today I am returning the favor. Helping him in his time of need.

Doug's family was graced with their newest arrival, Kaleb. He was very early! He couldn't wait to meet his parents! He was born at 24 weeks. He was 1lb 2 ounces. He is currently learning how to breathe on his own.

John, one of Doug's best friends since school has set up a fundraiser for them. All the proceeds will go straight to the family.

An old era bottle opener made from 304 stainless steel from Marquette, Michigan. The dimensions are 2.70 x 0.75 x 0.25 inches. They are 15$ each. I think these are just amazing! Please order one if you have the money. It would certainly help out a wonderful family who is trying to get back on their feet. You can go HERE to read their story and view pictures of their beautiful family. Please be sure to share with your friends!

Thank you!!
Amanda.

Raingun review


                Raingun.
                                                                       Written by John Blackport.

 I recently had the chance to read Raingun. This book is unlike any other I have read. Trust me, I have read a lot of books.

Mr. Blackport takes you to a whole new world and allows you to see it through Rick's eyes. Rick is the main character in this amazing and exciting tale of a young boy's struggle through life. Each person has 5 gifts(Lives). Once lost they are resurrected, unless it is the fifth gift, then you become giftless. (Dead)

Rick has a mother that not all would want. He joins the rainguns to get away, and to make something of himself. He proves himself many times over fighting the undead, servants of Grumach, The god of insanity and horror. He loses one gift(life) to a pirate who worships Ullon, the god of murder and deceit. 

Watch a boy become a man. You will feel his sadness, weakness, happiness, and anger. This is not your usually world. You will lose yourself with in the scenery. words will be come pictures and you yourself will be intrigue by the characters in Rick's life. You will feel yourself start to recite spells almost as you are a raingun your self following him in to battle. Will he fulfill his dreams? Will he find his lost love and get her to love him back?

This you will have to find out on your own. I have thoroughly enjoyed this book, and will continue to read it many more times. I will be waiting very impatiently for the next book. I believe Mr. Blackport has worked very hard, and will continue to expand our imagination through his books!

Thank you John for letting me review this book. I look forward to many more books written by you!
