Flapjack fundraiser - save the date!

Adoption can be expensive, and for some families the cost deters them from ever moving forward with the process. Lucky for Mark and I, we love a challenge. I have to admit that the cost scared us at first too, we wondered how we could ever save enough money to fund our adoption. But as time went on, and we felt more and more that adoption was God's plan for us, we knew that there had to be a way. We have faith that God will provide, although we also know that money will not fall from the sky, so we have planned a few fundraisers.

Last weekend we held our first ever yard sale (and probably last ever yard sale). Boy was it hard work! We are reminded time and time again how amazing our friends and family are. We had so many people donate stuff for us to sell and come to help us out on the big day. The yard sale itself deserves a whole post and I'll be working on that soon!

In the meantime, we are gearing up for our next big fundraiser - our Flapjack Fundraiser on November 3rd. Those of you who live locally we would love for you to come out and join us, it's from 8am-10am at the Applebee's on Hillsborough St. We will be selling tickets ahead of time and will need to give the restaurant a head count a few days before. So if you are interested in coming make sure you get your tickets. Shoot me an email or text to let me know if you want one and I'll get up with you. We also need a few people to volunteer to help us seat guests and serve pancakes that morning so let us know if you want to do that too!

Feel free to share the flyer with anyone you know who might want to come (coworkers, friends, small groups, family, etc) - the more the merrier!
