June has flown by, but has been filled with joy and blessings. I know I say this in just about every post, but we are so blessed to be surrounded by amazing people. I am not sure you all realize how much you mean to us. The first weekend of June was filled with giggles and delight as Sophia and her friends hosted a garage sale to raise money for our adoption. These sweet girls dreamed up this idea, planned, created, and made it happen. They had a sewing day to create bookmarks and coasters to sell at the garage sale. We were blown away by the generosity of these sweet families to open their home, manage the sale, and donate their profits. THANK YOU! On June 17th our son hosted a Bike-A-Thon. We were joined that morning by 28 friends and family members. The group completed 182 laps around Meadowood Park for a total of 136.5 miles were walked or biked. We want to say thank you to everyone who participated and everyone who sponsored a participant. We set a goal of $1,000.00. We will announce our total raised after our final collection day on July 9th. THANK YOU! The following weekend, our niece made and gave away lemonade, excepting donations, all day at the farmers market to raise money to help bring her cousin home. We love her sweet heart! THANK YOU! We had our home study update this month. Our home study must be updated once a year while we wait for our little guy to come home. Our next step will be getting everything ready to update our immigration status in the fall.
We will keep you posted as we continue to move forward. We are so glad to be on this amazing journey.
