I have SO much to be thankful for! I can't even begin to name everything. All of the thanks goes to my sweet Jesus who loves me unconditionally! I'm so thankful to be adopted into His family! I'm also thankful for a wonderful hubby who loves me and would do anything for me. I'm thankful for our wonderful families, friends, and church who all support us and love us. Thanks everyone for all your support. You'll never know what it means!
Yesterday was so nice to visit with family. We went to my dad's and Jenn's for breakfast followed by the Raybon's, with my mom, for lunch! We were so stuffed! Bill's family was in Florida having a wonderful time. We missed them a lot and can't wait until they get back home tomorrow!
Later that night my sister Gennie came and spent the night with us. We got up @ 4AM this morning to be with all the other crazy people! Bill & I have done this every year! For some reason we love it, & love the deals we get! We don't have much extra $ this year with the economy the way it's been & with trying to save for the adoption. We just put aside a certain amount each week starting several weeks back, & what we had is what we could spend, no more. We actually did wonderful & had some left over! That's going in the "baby fund"! When we got all finished we came home, took a nap, and then put all of our Christmas stuff up! It's beautiful! I love this time of year!
Oh yeah, I just wanted to let you all know about our fundraiser coming up! Next Saturday we are having a Christmas gift wrapping fundraiser. It's Sat., Dec. 5 from 2p-5p @ New Life Church of God of Prophecy in Rolesville in their fellowship hall. They have been gracious in offering us that space. We will also be selling home made baked goods! Please bring your presents to us & let us wrap them for you for a donation to our adoption fund! Help us raise money to bring our baby home to their forever family! :)
