Next week we will hold a rummage to raise funds for our adoption expenses. About 6 months ago we asked close friends and family to give us things they would otherwise give to goodwill. You can see the results of this solicitation in the photographs. We got a very generous response. Some went out of their way to meet us with things halfway between our home and theirs. Others dropped things off at the house while we were at work. We don't even know what's in some of these boxes yet!!
We wish to thank all those who donated stuff for the rummage. It will be neat to show our child these pictures one day. He or she will be able to see the stuff we got to help bring him or her home. Our child will know he or she was loved before anyone even knew who he or she was. We will post pictures of the rummage as well. It will run on Friday and Saturday June 4th – 5th.
We are looking forward to having several of our family and friends come through on this Memorial Day weekend to help us set up/organize for next week, and enjoy some grilling out. We are very grateful for all the veterans who paid the ultimate price so we could have it easy.
Have a happy and safe Memorial Day Holiday!
What a good idea! Have fun with the rummage sale, I bet it will help out a lot with those costs :)
