I wanted to take a moment to share some information about our adoption fundraiser. During the month of March - we have A LOT of adoption fundraising going on. The primary one is our raffle and online auction, which will take place March 15 - 25. It has been absolutely amazing how God has orchestrated all of this. We have received raffle donation from so many people. We will have custom jewelry, electronics, vacation packages and more. By the way, if you have an item or service that your would like to donate - please contact us. Our online auction will take place during the same time and be featured on eBay. The auction will have designer luggage, monogrammed children's clothing, customer adoption/birth announcements, etc. Once again, we have received some wonderful donation from our family and friends.
We are not relying on this event alone to fund our adoption. Each weekend in the month of March, we will be participating in a craft show. The largest will be March 7 at the St Charles Convention Center ( St Charles, Missouri) It is the Baby and Kids Expo . This is an annual event that highlights goods and services designed with kids in mind. I think this should be a great event for us. We will be stitching monogrammed children's backpacks. With an estimated attendance of over 3,000 - I think we should sell quite a few.
Our other events will be in Affton and St Peters, Missouri. The are local craft shows, sponsored by area schools.

Our primary goal through these fund raising activities is to help bring our daughter home - but it is also to spread the word about adoption. Our lives have been forever changed through this experience.
Till later....
