TOTALS!

Hi All,

Just wanted to give you a quick update to let you know the outcome of the car wash fundraiser.

The total raised from the car wash is...(drum roll please)...$1,568.00!!!!

We were so blessed, thankful, and shocked at the total.  We want to thank all that came out to support and who gave to our adoption...we are so truly humbled by your giving!  We also want to thank all of our friends who came out and helped us...we could absolutely not have done it without you!!  What a blessing you are to our family!

More updates to come soon.

Thankful for His Many Blessings,
Daniel & Heather

THIS IS THE WEEK

Hi all!
 Just wanted to remind you that this Saturday, August 18th from 9 am - 2 pm we will be having a Car Wash Fundraiser at East 74 Restaurant in Indian Trail.  All donations will go directly toward our adoption expenses.  We hope to get to meet a lot of people (blog followers, those interested in adoption, those in the process of adopting, or maybe ones that are unaware of adoption or the costs involved).   Thank you in advance for coming out and showing your support!  There is a link to a video below that you need to check out, take a couple minutes and view it.

See ya Saturday!!!!

143,000,000 minus 1

THE LATEST & FUNDRAISER EVENT

Happy August everyone!  I somehow missed blogging in July...sorry about that Lugo adoption blog followers!  Here's the latest:

7/2/12-Our dossier reached Ethiopia (where it undergoes translation-which should be about done now)
7/3/12-Fingerprinted at USCIS
7/23/12-Received USCIS approval in the mail

We are still "WAITING IMPATIENTLY" on a referral.  There have been a lot of referrals happening through our agency recently, so it could be soon!  Just please continue to pray for us as we wait, and also for wisdom when that referral comes.

Thank you so much for continuing to read our blog, the many inquiries on our process, and wanting to stay updated on our adoption journey!  We truly appreciate it and thank you for caring for us!  See below for an opportunity for you to come out and support our adoption in person!  Jot the date on your calendar so you won't forget...if you're like me, it is a must!  But I'll be sure to post the fundraiser date again in case you don't use a calendar!
