Fundraising Fun

With school out and a little more time on our hands, we are putting more focus on our fundraising efforts.  We actually have several different projects in the works right now, which are keeping us hopping.





Table Wes made for Sat.'s auction



To kick off our summer fundraising fun, Mike and I are having a yard sale this Friday and Saturday.  Also on Saturday, our church is having a benefit auction for us with all the proceeds going to our Bringing Home Briton adoption fund.  Local craftsmen are making and donating items, such as porch swings, cedar chests, end tables, decorative wreaths, decorative windows, and much more to be auctioned off.  Then, Amber and our friend Sandra Trammell are helping us organize a t-shirt fundraiser a little later in the summer.  We are pretty excited about the t-shirt design and can't wait to share it with ya'll when it's all finalized, so stay tuned :) 

Adoption Update:

We have not heard anything new specific to our case, but we did find out this week that the very first adoptions under the new law will be finalized (meaning bringing the children home) at the end of this month.  We are still waiting to be requested the second round of paperwork, but it seems that after this second round of paperwork goes through things seem to move fairly quickly.
