Love In Every Stitch

What a Busy Busy week!!!!!   Christmas is a busy time of the year always but with all the Christmas activities and Adoption preparation, it is crazy. 

We have discuss several fund raising projects.  If you don't know this adoption process is not cheap.  I had no idea how expensive it is to adopt, but like Mike and I have said  When it's God's will He will provide.  So we are not worrying about where the funds are going to come from, just know God is going to provide. 

My first fundraising project I have started is crocheting scarves.  I have always crocheted ever since I was a little girl.  I would make things for people and give it away as presents.  So one of my best friends and fund raising coordinator told me to start crocheting and sell it.  Every stich I make  is done with Love and anticipation of seeing our little boy.  I am overwhelmed by the love and support of people that have bought scarves from me to bring our precious little boy home to us.  I have made about 15 scarves and have many more orders to fill.  Thank each and everyone of you that have bought a scarf.  It means so much to all of us.  Oh I forgot to mention big sister Kiersten is knitting some for us to sell.  We will be more than happy to make a scarf for any of you.  Just let us know and we will get right on it.   This is a big family project for all. 

Our Big Fundraiser is going to be  Feb. 15, 2014 on a Saturday night at First Baptist Church in Tupelo.   The fundraiser is going to be a dinner a little entertainnent, a silent auction and families sharing about adoption.. So put that date on your calendar.  We are going in with some dear friends of ours Steve and Charmaine Tybor  to do this fundraiser together.  The Tybors are  adopting two little girls from Taiwan.  We are so excited to be traveling this awesome journey with their family. 

I welcome any ideas that you could share with us on fundraising.  Josh's idea of fundraising is giving up half of his Christmas so he can get a little brother.  The boy is so fired up about getting a little brother. 

Well I better go for now.  I have lots of scarves to make.  I was up until 1:15 this morning crocheting and woke up at 5:30 and started again.  Like I said Love in every stitch.
