Here we go!!!










Thanks to our wonderful gover*ment Joe and I are going to be able to start our adoption soon ( and by that I mean our tax return) God has blessed us and we feel like it is the go ahead to start the adoption Home Study.  We still have to get paperwork in and wait for the money to hit our bank account but as soon as we have all of that lined up we can start.  With Joe being out of work right now it is a little scary to not use that money for bills but we are putting all are faith in God right now that He will provide the money that we will need for the bills.






We are still going to put together a couple of fundraisers seeing as how we are still going to need much more than it costs to do a home study.  Right now we are working on doing a garage sale in May.

I will also be putting on a link in case you just want to support the adoption you can donate directly to the adoption fund.

Please pray:

....that God will provide for our bills while Joe is not working
....that our business will start to pick up so Joe can start working
....that the paperwork will go smoothly and we can start soon

Birthday Fun!!!

So it was my birthday yesterday..... 30 years old 

YIKES!!!!

I know it is not that old but I feel like I just graduated from High School a couple of years ago.

I started the day at my house with no gas..... what does that mean....

 I can not do laundry

 I can not do dishes

No Heat (it was 48 degrees in the house)

No hot water for shower

It was a time to remember how blessed we are when we do have all those things.

After the landlord finally got the gas back on my wonderful husband came home and did the dishes for me. 

Then after dinner was over the intern that is living with us put the dishes away and did the dinner dishes.

I couldn't have asked for a better present than to not have to do the dishes for a night. 



It really makes me realize how much I would LOOOOOOVVVVEEE to have a maid service.


I don't know what to think about being thirty.  I know I will get used to it but it just feels weird to say.

I will take your junk!!!

HERE IT IS......  THE FIRST FUNDRAISER.......FOR THE ADOPTION







We are going to holding a yard sale in May (hopefully... according to the groundhog) and are going to start

collecting items for it. 











 If you have anything you want to get rid of and would like to help raise money for our

adoption that would just be wonderful.













 Please get a hold of me and will will figure out what to do with it depending on the size. 










AND if you dont have anything to donate thats ok cause that means you need some stuff (LOL)





 



and I will let you know what date we are going to be holding the sale and where.  SO....  spread the

word......tell your friends.....

                                              I say, ya we are pregnant right now.....

                              Ok just look at the picture and you will see what I mean.
