Ultimate Blog Party 2013

Ultimate Blog Party 2013
Welcome to my blog, "Fruitbearers"! My name is Urailak. I'm a blessed wife of Eric (for almost 22 years) and homeschool mom of 3 delightful kids (19 yo dd, 14 yo son, and 11 yo son). Our oldest graduated from homeschool highschool in 2011. We love Jesus and love people! If you're on Facebook and would like to get to know me better, please send me a friend request. I'm "Fruit Bearer" on FB. I'm passionate about evangelism, missions, Bible study, serving God and serving others. I enjoy reading good books (mostly non-fiction) and listening to good music (mostly praise/worship songs and hymns). I usually don't have time to blog much except posting reviews and giveaways here. Right now, I'm hosting two great giveaways:Win a copy of What I Wish I Knew at 18 (I highly recommend this book for all parents, teens, and young adults. It makes an excellent gift for high school graduates!) by Dennis Trittin here. Ends 4/14, and Win a copy of this fun, educational DVD: Janet's Planet--Exploring Microgravity here. Ends 4/15. Hope you'll enter either or both :)! Have fun blog-hopping! Thanks for stopping by and leaving a comment!
