Win an amazon.com gift card!

We are so excited to announce our next fundraiser! We know that most of you have already started your Christmas shopping and if you haven't you are stressing as you think about all the Christmas shopping you need to do. So much time and money! So, we want to help make it a little easier and more exciting for you. You ready for this?

You have the chance to win a $500 AMAZON Gift Card. Oh yes, you just read that right... a $500 gift card. Do I have your attention now? Good!



Here is how it will work. We bought a deck of cards. As you know there are 52 cards in a deck. For $25, we will write your name on one of those cards and enter it into the drawing. You have a 1 in 52 chance to win $500, those are pretty good odds my friends!


On December 1st or when all cards are sold (whichever comes first), we will draw one card at  random. If your name is on that card, you win $500 to spend on Amazon! Amazon is our go to shopping spot. You can pretty much find ANYTHING you need on there and with a click of a button, have it delivered to your door. If you have a prime account, you can get most stuff within 2 days and with no shipping cost!

So, here are 2 things we are asking you to do:

1) If you would like to purchase a card for a chance to win, please click on our paypal button (at the top left of the blog) and donate $25. Include the name you would like on the card.

2) SHARE this blog post with your friends through Facebook or email. We want to sell all 52 cards as quickly as possible so that the winner can get to shopping. Amazon always has GREAT black Friday deals, so if we can sell them fast, the winner will get more bang for their buck.

 Remember your donation is helping us to reach our fundraising goal to get our little guy home from Ethiopia. Let's see how fast we can sell these cards. One lucky person is going to be a very happy shopper!

Where in the World is Our Adoption Tee at? Post # 20

It has been a while since we have done a blog post because I tend to do most of our updates via FB, since it is quick and easy. I forgot that I had received a picture of a precious family wearing our adoption tees a while back and I wanted to make sure to give them a shout out because they are just AWESOME!

Meet Andy Wayne and Krista Chance along with their 7 totally adorable kiddos. I cannot tell you how much I love this family! When I was in college and attended a church in Hammond, Andy Wayne came on as the associate pastor. Through church, small group, game nights and just hanging out we came to know and love this family.

I look up to these guys so much! Andy Wayne is a pastor at The Vine Church in Hammond (If you live in Hammond, you should totally check them out). He is also a teacher at Northlake Christian School. He is insanely smart and loves to pass down his knowledge to his kiddos.  I remember hearing from someone in a conversation once, "I know this guy in Hammond who is teaching his 5 year olds Hebrew." I knew immediately it was AW...haha!

Krista is the essence of everything that I want to be when I grow up. She is insanely beautiful on the inside and out, loves the Lord with her whole being, is always joyful and positive (How does she do that?), home schools her kids, teaches workout classes, bakes incredible cakes and sweets, etc. I could go on and on about her. Plain and simple, I love this lady and she inspires me! As for the kids, they are all precious cotton tops with fun and unique personalities who are always so polite when we see them.

We love hanging out with Chance Crew any chance we get. We are so thankful that they bought adoption tees for the whole family and sported them proudly to church. Thank you Chance family for your love, support, and friendship. We love you guys so much!


Had to add in the one with Esther Kate's silly face. Makes me giggle!
