And so it begins!

Well, as we start this new adoption, I have to say, it looks impossible. Crazy impossible. But we serve a HUGE God who loves orphans, so I know He will provide! However, I'm not naive enough to think the money will magically appear in our account either. :) That being said, we are going to have to fundraise like ca-razy!

So here are the ideas we have so far:
• Scentsy Fundraiser - going on now!
• Adoption Auction - next month (more on that later, but we'll be asking for donations!)
• Thirty-One Fundraiser - Maybe next month as well, if not March.
• T-shirts - working on a couple of designs now and will post as soon as they're ready to go. We may also work with a company to produce some shirts that won't cost us anything!
• Big ticket auction (iPad, Canon Rebel camera or something along those lines)

Here's what we need: $30,000. On paper, it looks insurmountable. But for the first person who scaled Mt. Kilimanjaro, I'm sure it did, too. But it's been done. I've seen my God provide crazy amounts in a ridiculously short amount of time. But we know we can't do it alone.

Would you pray with us and for us? Keep checking back, too. I'll be releasing more on our adoption story soon! :)
