Ok, hello! It's me, Jacob.
750,000 FOLLOWERS ON THE FACEBOOK MACHINE?! Get out!
I can't hardly believe it and I just don't know how to say thank you!
Would you like if we did a fancy giveaway?

Here's the situation...
I truly am so terribly thankful for each one of you who follows me here on my fancy page. Thank you for watching, commenting and sharing my fancy videos.
I surely do enjoy making people SMILE and that's what this is all about. Oh, and thank you so much for not speaking to my bishop about a wild Amish man being all over the internets!

Anyways, I can't possibly thank all 750,000 of you personally. I see! We are getting close to 1 MILLION!
I do want to say THANK YOU to each one of you and I want to also do some fancy giveaways over the next few weeks. What shall we give away? I do have a whole pile of children...
Well, what would you like to receive from me?

I want to say a terribly big THANK YOU to the Kimes Ranch. I'm not even allowed to wear their fancy clothing, but they keep sending it to me.
I SEE! I could give some of that fancy western clothing TO YOU!

Well now, you better stick around, because those giveaways are coming terribly soon! Thank you so much for 750,000 followers!
I just hope my bishop ain't 1 of them. May the Lord bless each one of you!
OK, we'll speak at you later.

I love you wreath: I took a DTree candy cane form and snipped off the end where the curve begins. This made a straight up and down form. I placed mesh from Amazon in a burgundy color and layered 3 ribbons over it. I took ( doubled up) cardboard and made 2 hearts and a set of lips. I covered those with felt fabric from Amazon and hot glued pink ribbon for the edges. I strung a ribbon on the back to connect these and mounted 3m on each one. I used pipe cleaners for the 3m mounts on the back and attached to wire form. I made additional hearts from the felt and placed them. I also cut the letters out of a deep navy felt. The welcome friends is a wood cutout, painted and added felt on hearts. Beaded (red) wire for the back in order to mount it.

Do you know what this number represents? The amount of funds that YOU have helped raise to support communities in need since 1984.

Your donations not only support affordable housing efforts in our local community. Each year we tithe a portion of these gifts to ensure everyone has a decent place to live.

Thanks to you, these tithe funds have created safer housing, clean drinking water, and built hope for children in areas such as Haiti and West Africa. Happy ❤

God bless US all. Todays craft is inspired by remembrance of all sacrifices made. I cut a cloth ( bed sheet) to size and antiqued edges with antique wax. Antique the cross and dowel. I added jute string for hanger. The fabric in red, white and blue plaid, I made into strips for 3 flower bows ( which are glued and sewn) . I added the foliage stems at the base and stars on the cross. Stars are painted a folkart Adirondack white.

The Carrot KING has arrived! Grocery prices are at an all time high but that won't stop this Bossman Bunny from getting his share of Carrots. Made of ribbon mesh roll, ribbon roll, fabric, ribbon, jute and DT carrot wire form. I wrapped the wire form with material and ribbon, but made sure wire was exposed to attach the Bunny and put a jute string hanger on the back. The bunny's bottom half is covered with brown material but as I got to the waist, I STUFFED WITH STUFFING. I then tightened the neck and added the head. The ears are wired inside and surround with white fuzzy yarn. I put jute string around waist and attached to the wire on the form.
