We are doing a puzzle fundraiser to help with the cost of our adoption. If you wish to buy a puzzle piece they are $10 each. We will write your name on the back and once all pieces are bought we will frame the puzzle in a double sided glass frame and hang in the nursery. You can pay by cash, check, credit card, our gofundme account, or securely through the paypal link listed below or on the right hand side of the blog. Please be sure to include your name so that we can add it to the puzzle piece!

Dinner/Auction Update:
We are having a dinner/auction to help raise money for our adoption. So far we have close to 50 items that are being donated. I am beyond grateful for all the donations. I never expected to get this many donations. I was thinking we'd get around 20 but not 50! So so grateful!! Most of the donations are coming from friends, family, community and friends of friends. As much as I wanted to have the event at our home to create a more personal experience we have decided to move to a bigger location. Due to the amount of items being donated and RSVPs that we've had we feel that we need a bigger space. Plus we are not sure how the weather will be the first week of April and want to make sure people are comfortable and have space to move around. I will post pictures of the event and give updates! Hopefully it will inspire someone else who is looking to adopt! I've posted a few items we have so far!

I have looked up a few grants to help with adoption costs. I've read that before you can apply for some grants you need to have your adoption application turned in and have your home study completed first. We are hoping to turn our adoption application in soon after we have our dinner/auction!! I still have some more research to do and will keep you updated! We ask that you continue to pray for us, please pray for our future child and the birth mother! Thank you!!
