We received our appointment from Homeland Security to get our fingerprints taken, we just got that taken care of today. That process takes 4-5 weeks to await the approval letter in the mail. Once that happens our agency can take us off hold and we can be put back on the wait list.
We are starting to get the house ready in anticipation for baby day. That means unpacking the basement bedroom that is full of boxes and half of the garage. It sounds strange to say that we are now just unpacking however, just until recently we were still doing a bit of renovation and updating work on the house.
Which brings us to another adoption fundraiser garage sale. This will be our 3rd. Because we need to purge (especially after living with so many things unused for over a year) and we need to get organized...we are doing this quickly. Friday August 9th and Saturday August 10th will be our garage sale dates. My parents are flying into town to help us and anyone else that would like to lend a hand is more than welcome!
Garage sale donations.
Do you have a bag or box that you were going to drop off at Goodwill- maybe you could drop it off at our house instead? Please send me a message if you have anything to donate. The garage sale fundraisers for the adoption we have had in past years were so much more successful with the donations from friends. And our friends friends. Please feel free to share our blog with anyone you think may have some extra "stuff" laying around they don't want anymore.
More to come. I have to get all of our stuff ready...
