Need Help. Please Apply Within.

We have a little over a week until the BIG HUGE ENORMOUS garage/yard/tent/bake/food sale.  The donations have been AWESOME!  I've been working feverishly to organize what we've received but there is still much more to organize and lots to price.  If you find yourself with a spare moment in the next week and a half and can make yourself available, I will gladly have you!  Also, set up for the sale is on Thursday, June 6.  We have three people firmly committed to helping that day but as you can see, we could use a village of people that day to set up and organize tables.  We could also use extra hands on Friday and Saturday to help organize tables, help customers, bag purchases, lifting help, etc.  Need help; please apply within.  Okay, so a phone call would work or a FB message would be great!  ;)

In case you have any doubts at the volume, here are up to date pictures taken this morning:

LOA!!!!!!!!

It is with much excitement that I can say, that WE can say, that we are official with China.  Our agency called us today to tell us they received the official Letter of Acceptance (LOA) from China which means we have the go ahead to finish Jordy's immigration paperwork.  This means we are on to step 9 and the last steps go really fast in comparison.  It has been our hope and prayer to be in China before September which is Jordy's 4th birthday and Melina's 3rd birthday.  Looks like this is going to be a reality!!!



Words cannot describe just how excited we are for this step.  We are so thankful for God's faithfulness.  Continue to pray for the financial stuff!  We know God has it all figured out and we trust Him.  We have another big fee coming up and are prayerful that our garage sale will get us to the right $.

Time for another picture.  Jordy's foster home took the children out for a swimming outing.  I cannot get over the swim cap.  I love the swim cap!!!!!!
