We got a date!!

Sept. 28, thats the day that we will meet with the SDA to get permission to go meet our little girl! I can't believe it, its finally coming! I'm absolutely bursting inside to see what my little girl looks like. I have such an old picture of her, and its making me crazy! Not to much longer though, we are almost there!
For people that are asking, we are still selling the bows, just click on the picture on the side, and follow the directions. I'm going to have another small auction, hopefully tomorrow, and the yard sale is on Saturday!
Wahooo!!!

Last minute fundraisers

I'm trying to do some last minute fundraisers, since I've let that lax and now I'm a little panicked! I am going to do another small auction, so donations to that would be greatly appreciated. also, if you live here in Utah, the yard sale is this Saturday if you have stuff to donate. We are selling lunch and sno cones. And of course, our cute bows! I'm hoping it does well!
Also, I was thinking of asking this new Pizza place if they would have a day were 10% goes to our adoption. I thought of them because they are new, their pizza is amazing, and it would help them as much as us. Because we would be spreading the word about this place and bringing in business. Any small donations are greatly appreciated!

Submitted!

As you may have seen on our family blog. We were submitted today!
I can't believe in mere weeks I'm going to have a girl! I never thought that day would come. I still have back and forth days. Yesterday I was not afraid of flying over there at all. The day before, all I could think about is the plane crashing and leaving my boys orphans!

Being submitted has me a little freaked out about fundraising. I've been so busy that I haven't been fundraising like I should be. The yard sale is next Saturday the 28th. If you want to donate anything to that just email me. Or you can donate to the chipin to help us buy food for it.
Also, a couple of people wanted to donate some things, so we may have another small auction. If you have something to donate to that, also email me.

We are so close to the finish line!!

Submission

After I found out last week that we weren't submitted, Andrea emailed me. She said that it would be possible to have Ray travel alone. We would have to change some of our paperwork, which means more delays, but it would be a medical need travel. We would say that I can't travel because of a medical crisis with another child. At first I thought that was a great idea, that I could just stay home with Jax. But I can't do that. I need to go. I need to be at that orphanage when they bring her out for the first time. I want to see where she came from. I would go nuts with Ray over there playing with her and bonding for weeks while I'm home. No way. So we are set to be submitted Thursday! Finally!
Jax is home, and he's doing good. I really think these new meds and the vent will keep him healthier. Now I'm anxious to go get Makayla home!
We are still planning the yard sale for next Saturday. I just had a friend offer to sell sno cones, donating all the supplies! I really hope it goes well, I've had some friends say they made tons of money doing a yard sale, so pray its the same for us!
