Tonight I went to a Wishing Well art show. Wishing Well is an organization that uses art to b0th fundraise and raise awareness about the water crisis in Africa. With the money they raise, they build sustainable wells for communities that desperately need them. So I went to check it out and came home with these prints for my apartment:
At the beginning, they had some of the So You Think You Can Dance? dancers perform, and since that show is one of the best things about summer...I thought it was a stroke of brilliance. And during one of the video montages, they used a song that I hadn't heard, but really liked...It was "Ain't No Reason" by Brett Dennen, who it turns out is fantastic. And if you already knew about him, shame on you for not telling me! It's a sad day when I get a music recommendation from American Idol.
And Eric and Tara didn't make it through court yesterday, which would have legally made them Malak's parents. Their new court date is April 17...if you could pray for it, that'd be great.

hey! I am so glad you went. Thanks for buy some stuff. I love your choices.
and by thanks for "buy" some stuff, I mean buying...
Funny - you picked up on all of my favorite things from American Idol Gives Back. I really want to get an Annie Lennox cd now & I really enjoyed that song by Brett Dennen. I had heard it before, but had forgotten about it until last night. I also liked seeing some of the "SYTYCD" Dancers, but where was the winner? hmmmm?
I also wanted to say...I LOVE your prints. Do you know if the art show is still going on? That's something I would really be interested in checking out. The one of the boy with the jug (the first one) is my favorite. I love the purpose behind them as well!
I am so sad to have missed going to the art show! I want to buy some of those prints too... I love a few of the ones that are in Malak's room......... I was hoping that I could purchase online, but no such luck. I did purchase a t shirt for Josh though...
Hope you have had a good weekend with the Fam!
