We IZ Cute!

Wow! I feel like I can start breathing again now that the rummage sale is over. I will update on that and other things adoption wise soon on our adoption blog, but wanted to leave you with a few pics of the kids from a couple different outings this summer.

HUGE Rummage Sale/Silent Auction

The time has finally come!

Our HUGE rummage sale/silent auction is this Saturday at Kent and I’s church from 8-3p.m. with the silent auction lasting until Sunday.
We have been exceedingly blessed with a ton of items for this sale. You name it we probably have it.

Baby Clothes up to Adult clothes, other baby items, toys, bikes, exercise equipment, decorative items of many many different venues, Christmas Items, Kitchen Items, even snow ski’s! I can’t even wrap my mind around everything right now to list it. Please come see us at our sale, and hear about our heart for the orphan.

This sale will benefit not two family’s adoptions from Ethiopia.

Hope you can make it and God Bless!
Matthew 25: 31-40

Smile

These make me smile a lot! Time with family; people we love and the kids love. Na Na Barb and Mike's...relaxation Ma Ma needs right now. I am knee deep in pricing things for our rummage sale in a couple weeks; so much so I am dreaming about it at night; yikes! But there is nothing I wouldn't due for my babies, and future babies!




(The hubs is going to be pretty upset w/me for posting this pic of his man chin, but it is too good not too!) Look at the joy these two have being together.

Courageous

It was all I could do to not cry after listening to this song, and watching this video trailer...

Clean Up, Clean Out, Donate

Turn your unused items into a blessed gift for orphans. My Family is jointly holding a Rummage Sale with the Bailey Family, to raise money for the fees associated with bringing the next members of our families “out of Africa.” The sale will be held in my church's Family Center on July 23rd.

We will be collecting gently used items that may be sold to fund the obscene cost of adoption. Please contact me to arrange for pick up of your donated items at least one week prior to the sale.

I will have more details on the sale later...we may be raffling some pretty cute baby quilts and I want even my bloggy friends to be able to buy tickets if you want.

I have been reading so many stories lately of orphans that are suffering so much and it breaks my heart even more. Please pray for all orphans of the world and ask God to show you what you can do to help!

God Bless

Just busy....

We have been crazy busy and I have more posts to come hopefully by next week, but here is a cute picture for now. I posted a little more detail on the adoption blog too.

We were able to get together with friends this past weekend and the girls were face painting. Mo decided to get in on the pic, but aren't they all just so sweet!

The Party & Other

Finally here are some pics from Mo's B-day party. He was pretty serious the day of the party because of Mr. Molar coming in, but he had the most fun when he was outside on his new swingset from his Grandparents! He will really love the sandbox his Grandpa Mike made too once we get some sand in it. We have a regular old playland in the backyard now.

He wasn't too happy in this pic because all he wanted was the train off the cake, and I wanted a picture... :)







These are from the night we put the swingset together. EJ asked me to put her up there and I said Hang on while I get a pic, and she couldn't wait for me to get her back down...I love the hat on Mo; it's Kent's and it was so huge on him...it was cute. They both really are so adorable, eh? I am biast and proud!
