Will You Please Help Spread the Word?

Our home study is almost complete. This is good news, but we are still short some of the funds we need for the next process. We have enough to pay for the final payment for our home study, but then we will need to send off our second payment as well as submit our I-800A forms. Both of these will cost us $3150. After our home study is complete, we will be able to apply for grants, but I'm not sure if we will receive grant money before these payments are due.


We currently have a few fundraisers. We truly appreciate and are blessed by all the support we receive.

First is our puzzle fundraiser. We purchased a 1000 piece puzzle with Lucas' picture on it and we are asking for a $5 donation to sponsor a piece of the puzzle. When you sponsor a piece of the puzzle we will put your name on the back of the piece. When all of the pieces are sponsored, we will put the puzzle together, frame it and display it in Lucas' room. It will serve as a forever reminder of all the people who helped bring him home. You can make a donation for a puzzle piece by clicking on the donate button on the right side of this page. We still have 986 pieces available to sponsor.
Our second fundraiser is our friend Christa Wilson of Christa Wilson Images is donating 50% of her profits this year to our adoption fund. Christa Wilson Images does beautiful lifestyle and wedding photography. You can click on the link above for contact information.

Our third fundraisers is through Just Love Coffee. We will receive a portion of every purchase you make. They sell more than just coffee. Check it out! 

Please feel free to share this with all of your friends. We also ask for your continued prayers for Lucas as he waits to come home, and for us as we wait to bring him home. We hope and pray to have him home by Christmas. God has provided everything we've needed for this adoption so far. We know that He will continue to provide for the rest of this journey.

Zipzicles review and giveaway!!

A couple weeks ago I received a package of Zipzicles to try out and review. I must say, I was super excited. You can read about how Zipzicles was started here. This summer my children and I attended VBS at our church. Since our church is a 30 minute drive and VBS ran from 8:30-12:30, I knew that I would need to pack their lunches. I attempted to make my own Zipzicle type packaging but it did not turn out well at all. I didn't take pictures because no-one needs to witness how bad they were. So, a couple months ago I found Zipzicles and wanted to give them a try. It is such a simple idea and I cannot believe no-one thought of them sooner. One of the things I like most (besides being super convenient) is that the packages are BPA free and recyclable! I also like that I know exactly what my kids are eating because I make it myself. Okay, so here is what I did. I made smoothies and put them in the Zipzicle packages. I am a big fan of tropical smoothies. Here I have coconut milk...

Vintage Christmas Wonderland - Review

When I was contacted a few weeks ago and asked if I would review a newly released Christmas album, I couldn't type fast enough to respond and say YES! Christmas is, by far, my favorite time of year.  When I received the Cds, they were wrapped in beautiful burlap and ribbon and decorated with a sparkly snowflake. Along with the Cds, there was a personal handwritten note. It was so sweet and just made the entire experience of this review scream vintage. Vintage Christmas Wonderland by David Ian has a smooth jazzy sound that takes you back to the days when life was less complicated. When I was contacted to review the album, it was described to me as " It's reminiscent of the Charlie Brown Christmas album and meant to bring warmth to the season!".  I can tell you, that is a perfect description. While listening to Vintage Christmas Wonderland, I felt like putting up my Christmas tree just so I could plug in the lights and watch them glow. I felt like starting a ...
