Our garage sale was amazing this weekend. Our goal for the enitre weekend was $500 and we were going to be super excited and feel incredibly blessed to have reached that goal. Well, God had something else in mind for us. Our total for both days was $2,933.03!!! How amazing is that?! The most we have ever made at a garage sale was $80. So, needless to say we were left speechless and in awe of this God who knows what we need, when we need it.
Thank you so much to all our friends and family who were praying for us this weekend and to all those who donated items, stopped by, helped us both days. This would have been a much more difficult task without all of you by our side.
Well, I hope to have pictures posted soon but our computer is just not cooperating. So, check back...they should be up this week.
We also have our intake interview with Bethany this Wednesday at 9:30-11:30. We are very excited but also a bit nervous because we don't really know what an intake interview is so we don't know what to expect. We would really appreciate your prayers!!
Thank you again for loving us and praying for us....we can't wait to tell our son or daughter someday how much God loves them and how much all of you have loved them before ever meeting them.

Well, I'm very new to this world of blogging. Its kind of scary...so we'll see how it goes. We wanted to create this blog so we could share this journey with our family and friends. We are so excited as we anticipate the long awaited homecoming of our first child and scared out of our minds as we look at all the paperwork and waiting and all the unknowns. So, thank you so much for walking this road with us. Through all your love and support we are reminded of God's intimate love and care for us.
We have 2 fundraisers we are going to be doing so far. The first is a garage sale Sept 28 and 29. If anybody wants to get rid of any junk and donate it to us we would love it! Jake or I can come pick it up anytime, just give us a call. The second is TBA because we don't really know the details yet, so stay tuned!
Thank you for all your encouraging emails and notes. We are so blessed and so humbled. We have 28 steps total in this process and we have already completed 1-5. YAY!!! We have to focus on the small victories! Thanks again for all your support! I'll try to be diligent in my posting so come back and visit!
