Take Two

We will be having another yard sale this saturday Nov. 21 at our house, to sell the leftover things, so if anyone has anything else they would like to donate, now's your chance! : )

Baby Bottles

I just wanted everyone to know how precious my niece was when she got the baby bottle to fill with change. My mom gave her one, and she ran to her room and dumped her piggy bank into the bottle to fill it up right away! She came out and said with excitement,"I filled it up cause I want my new cousin to get here faster!" Then that night she said she had a dream that we came home with our 2 kids – one was a baby and one was a little girl her age, and they got to play together! How sweet is that! She is so excited to get a cousin! : )

Spare Change

Hey everyone! In the spirit of National Orphan Day (which was this past Sunday November 8th) we wanted to let you know our first appointment with the adoption agency Celebrate Children that very day, and we got 3 full hours of information all at once. It was a lot to take in, but got us even more excited about this process!

We're also excited to announce that we've started our next fundraiser: We'll be giving out baby bottles with instructions inside to please collect your spare change over the next month or so, and then return it to us. It's a great one for families to help with since kids enjoy putting their change in the bottle. Every little bit helps!

More details on Ethiopia to come :)

First Fundraiser

Hi everyone! For those of you who haven't already heard, Jenn and Matt are about to hold their first fundraiser to help with the adoption fees and they would LOVE for you to be a part of the event. They'll be having a garage sale at their home this coming weekend, Saturday the 14th, and will be accepting any and all donation items you're willing to part with. Whatever doesn't sell this weekend will be put toward a second yard sale later in the year, so it's not too late to donate even if you can't help right now. Jenn and Matt are SO thankful for anything you're able to give!


If you need more info about the sale, just leave a comment here or contact Jenn on her Facebook page.


Thanks!
