So, logged in today to share some of the exciting things
going on lately! Been a VERY busy few weeks!
So, first up. Last weekend Sabrina (www.myheartforuganda.blogspot.com)
and I held our first yard sale at St Luke’s in Rincon on Saturday Aug 12th.
THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU to everyone who donated items to us!! We got there with Steve’s car, my car and Sabrina’s
car plus a borrowed trailer packed FULL. We split the proceeds and are a little
bit closer to JJ and ‘snow angel’! Side note: If anyone is looking to sell some
items or crafts, the 2nd Saturday of every month at St Luke’s on
Goshen Rd in Rincon is a GREAT place to do it! Thank you St Luke’s!
Currently collaborating with 2 other local families on
something much bigger for December 21st so PLEASE keep that evening
OPEN!! Promise of an awesome FAMILY event that will really get you into the
Christmas spirit!!
Also want to say thank you to my friend Anne Marie who
helped me out and brought some of my handmade items to a buy/sell/trade event
on Aug 12th. I couldn’t be in two places at once and I truly
appreciate you helping me out! Every little bit counts!! If anyone is interested
in natural cleaning products as well as other natural balms etc check her out

Update on everyone here: Gavin is on his first alone trip to Mimma’s up
in Virginia and LOVING it. He better enjoy it b/c school is hardcore when he
comes home ;-) Caden is starting school with us this year and so far not
fighting any of it ;-) And the twins…they
still just hang out and play. They’ve started chasing each other and screeching…plus
babbling up a storm which is just fun to hear! Steve just working hard for our
family and I hope he realizes just how much I appreciate it!! I’ve been busy
painting and purging my way through the house. More to come on that topic at a
later date… Also been busy making some new loveys…First 2 sold immediately and
5 more ordered for Christmas! THANK YOU to those who have ordered and let me
know if you are interested ;-). Using my own templates and tweaking as I go!
Prayers for my friend Sabrina and her family as they
continue to try and get JJ home from Uganda. Been a busy month for her and another
busy month to come while they welcome home her husband and try and finish up
home study and adoption paperwork. JJ has some special needs and the sooner
they get him home the better! They are
running several fundraisers as well to help with expenses. Please check it out!

! Prayers for JJ until they can get to him. He’s a cute little guy with just a
HUGE smile!
Prayers for our family(several ‘life’ aspects), His timing
and of course for ‘snow angel’. She may very well be on this Earth already and
prayers for her safety would be great! Thank you again for those who have
supported us and helped with donations, prayers etc!!
