Great is Thy Faithfulness

~We praise God for His faithfulness to provide continually for us~

Dakota and I want to thank everyone that purchased a fundraising t-shirt! We really appreciate all the support and cannot wait until they come in! You should receive your shirt by June 8th! Also, we are so incredibly blessed that we not only met our goal of selling 50 shirts, but y’all helped us pass another goal by purchasing 8 more shirts! Thank you from the bottom of our hearts! We feel so loved by you.

Before we post every week we fill out our fundraising meter to see where we are financially and this week we are just shocked. I guess we didn’t realize what was happening before us, but here it is! We are 75% to our goal! Can you believe that in six months God has used family, friends and strangers to help us get to $18,950?! What a HUGE act of God. He is so good! Thank you to everybody who has helped us financially, we could not do this without you! 


We can’t forget to thank everybody who has prayed for us during this process. There have been many wonderful and exciting moments so far, but there are also times when our hearts ache and we just don’t understand certain situations. We know that with the prayers that you are lifting up for us, we are able to keep moving forward with thankful hearts. Your prayers are something we desire more than anything else. We know that God has opened these doors for us to adopt, but it is so wonderful to know that you are speaking to God on our behalf. We are so ready to meet this precious child that God has planned for us, but we have to be patient. Please pray for patience and more patience as we wait!


This week Dakota and I took our baby basics class and learned how to take care of a newborn baby! Last weekend Dakota was officially CPR certified! We are nearly complete with our book and we are eagerly waiting to be on that waiting list!

Fundraising Friday/T-shirt Reminder

This week was such a joyful week for Dakota and I. We felt encouraged and motivated to keep moving forward after our last home study visit. We have about 6 weeks until we are an official waiting family! I have never been more excited to wait for something!
Our baby basics class is scheduled for the end of the month and we are really looking forward to learning everything we can about taking care of an infant. We are also working hard to finish our profile book. For those of you who do not know what an adoption profile book is, we have a 20 page picture book to tell the story of us. We are able to write a letter to the birth parents and show them things about ourselves, our families and our interests. It is really fun to make! It is a great way to really show the dynamic of who we are, how we would like to raise a family and our faith.


Don’t forget to to purchase a t-shirt! Click here for the website. We are can’t wait to see you in them! The t-shirt sale is only open until May 23 rd, so only one more week to order! 


With our t-shirt sales we have moved up to 65% on the fundraising meter! We are so thankful to everyone who has supported us financially, spiritually and with encouraging words!
