Hope House Home for Boys

The cards that I sell here in Chapala and Ajijic, Mexico benefit the dental program for the boys at Hope House in the nearby village of Ixlahuacan. There are close to 30 boys at the home and many of them come to the home having received no dental treatment. If you live here at Lakeside and would like to order a quality, hand crafted card for a special occasion and help me contribute to this worthy cause, please e-mail me at bettyinchapala@yahoo.com Card price is 50 pesos; the entire sales price is donated to Hope House.

Bags Are Packed


Well, my friends, my bags are packed and I'm ready to take off tomorrow morning! I'm hoping that I planned well enough to pack most of what I'll be needing; if not, Ajijic does have a WalMart!! (bet you didn't know that!) I should have internet service at the bed and breakfast where I'll be staying so should be able to get a note posted to my blog to let you know of my safe arrival (positive thinking, right!?) I received a confirmation email from the sweet couple who will be picking me up at the airport so I shouldn't have to worry about being stranded there without a ride! I'm washing up the last two loads of dirty laundry now and after a few more items to take of on the computer, I'll be logging off and getting it ready for travel.
Give me a kind thought tomorrow!

Christmas Tag


I just realized that I forgot to post the tag that I made to go along with my Roses' decoupage project for September. I love this double sided ribbon with dots on one side and stripes on the other. Stamp from Stampin' Up.

The craft room is now officially a bedroom! It took a while but all my "stuff" is neatly organized and packed away. It will be like Christmas when I can unpack it all again. What will I be doing since I won't have my paper crafting??? Let's see, I've got to learn how to speak Spanish; some of you may remember a piece of Christmas cross-stitch that has been unfinished for many years and a stampTV member helped me locate a pattern -- I'll be taking that project with me and hopefully, I'll have a picture to show you one of these day of it all finished and beautiful! Beth Moore's "Daniel" bible study will also be traveling to Mexico with me; I had taken this course at church a few years back but know that there's so much more I can learn by going through it again. I mentioned that I wanted to organize my digis on my computer and of course, there's the time that I'm going to be spending by the pool and in the hot tub!!

I'll be leaving on Sunday morning, October 3. I'll still be connected to you all via the internet so you probably wouldn't even know that I wasn't still in Texas if it weren't for the fact that I look forward to being able to show you pictures from this lovely area where I'll the living the next couple of months.
