Our next fundraiser is starting soon!

Blogging is not my strong point.  I guess I just have to make myself sit down and do it.  The baby bottle fundraiser has slowed down but I know there are still baby bottles out there.  We will continue to keep collecting as long as people keep filling them up.  Every little bit counts.  The two women that are the masterminds of  helping figure all the info for adoption, fundraising, baby searching effort are about to start something new by making a brochure for us to pass out.  I am sure they have some other ideas up their sleeve's.  I am very appreciative for their efforts and encouragement.  I hope that during the month of March we will be able to complete our home study and have that out of the way.  We had our Garage Sale this past Saturday and all I can say is WOW!  It was alot of work but well worth the profits we made.  We raised over 1,000 dollars at a garage sale.  I did not expect that much.  We were very fortunate to have numerous people donate items, come out and help, and also to spread the word.  I went to the bank to deposit the money and now the tellers at the bank know me from coming in and depositing the bottle money.  Its crazy I don't even have to tell them why I am there.  The teller, when I took the garage sale money, wants a brochure to place around the bank and see what she can do.  For March, Michelle Gibson Smith has been gracious enough to help us do a Thirty-one party to fund raise.  It will open online and last until the end of March.  I will send more details if you are interested in purchasing any items.  I am always looking for the next way to fund raise, so that we can reach our goal.  I also like to keep the excitement alive and change up the fundraising so that something will appeal to everyone.  Thanks for all of your support and help to reach our fundraising goal.

Update!
Chad and I are currently working on our paperwork to turn in to get the home study underway.  We have been collecting some of the baby bottles and it has been great.  Hopefully I will have more to blog about soon.
