Doll Collection for Sale

We have been going through every thing trying to identify items that we can sell in order to raise money for Lin Mei's adoption and I have made the decision to part with a large number of Barbies that I have been collecting since I was a child.  With a collection of nearly 100 dolls that are still sealed in boxes they are too numerous to try and list here, but if anyone out there knows someone who might be interested in any or all of them please feel free to direct them my way! 

After all, this precious doll is well worth the sacrifice. 

T-Shirts For Sale!

We have our T-Shirt fundraiser up and running!  Here are the designs.  Sizes range from Youth Small to Adult XXXL, and we are selling them for $16 each.  If you would like to place an order please e-mail me at tbmcfarland75@yahoo.com.  Thanks!

First fundraiser was a success!

Our yard sale yesterday was a great success, we raised more than $800!  Thanks to everyone who donated items and a special thank you to Mom for hosting the event and helping us out!

In addition to this good news we came home yesterday to find our I800A filing receipt in the mailbox so hopefully we will have our fingerprinting appointment soon and our approval soon after.

Our next fundraising event is the pancake breakfast on November 19th.  We have already started selling tickets so if you haven't gotten yours yet and would like to do so please let me know, we have to sell 100 tickets for this event so we really need your help on this one!  Tickets are $8 each.

Thanks again to everyone for your prayers and support.

Fundraiser #2

We are getting ready to kick off fundraiser #2, an All You Can Eat Pancake Breakfast benefit.  The benefit will take place at Fatz Restaurant in Shelby, NC on Saturday, November 19th from 7:30 a.m. - 10:30 a.m.  We almost have enough volunteers recruited to help us with the positions that must be filled for the fundraiser, but now we need to sell some tickets! Tickets are $8.00 each if you would like to purchase a ticket, or if you know someone who is interested in participating please contact me directly.

Just a reminder, we are also having a yard sale on October 22nd and we will be collecting items to sell up until Friday, October 21st if you have anything you would be willing to donte it would be greatly appreciated. 

Thanks to everyone for all of your continued prayers and support.  I look forward to posting another update soon!

Home Study in Hand!!!!!

Woo Hoo!  We received our home study documents today, this means that we can move on to the next step in the process which is filing our I-800-A with the USCIS.  We are being told that it is taking approximately 8 weeks to receive approval, but we are praying it comes through quicker than that.
