1) Rabbit (remember, that is our nine-year-old) is having a lemonade/cookie stand this Saturday in our front yard. It is our town's annual celebration this weekend, and we tend to get many people walking past our house. A friend from church offered to make specially decorated sugar cookies!
2) Our BIG benefit at church is happening THIS SUNDAY! It runs from 10AM-3PM and there will be food, Bingo, and kids' activities. If you live locally, PLEASE stop by to support us!
3) On Saturday, August 2nd, we are having a book sale at Ferguson Books & More in Grand Forks, thanks to my sister and brother-in-law who own the bookstore and generously offered to do this for us. If you live near that area, please stop by between 11AM-3PM and check out the books!
4) On August 15th and 16th, we are having a HUGE garage sale at our church. Many people have already donated items, and we are still accepting further donations. So far we have collected clothes, toys, children's bikes, books, household objects, and many other miscellaneous items. Come check it out!
We hope to see many of you stopping by at least one of our events. We have high hopes that these next few weeks will be productive and will get us much closer to being funded for our adoption. To inspire you, here is yet another adorable picture of our Kellin.
