I'm so excited I could burst!
I am SO SORRY I haven't posted in forever.... 3 months to be exact, but you get the idea.
Bobby and I are embarking on a new journey... ADOPTION!!! Not just any adoption though: We are planning on adopting a child with Down syndrome!
I'm a little nervous, but very excited to do this.
We are fundraising to help alleviate the cost of the adoption... Here's how we're doing it!
Me- In case you didn't know, I'm a Mary Kay consultant. I've been teaching women (and men) about skin care and color cosmetics for 4 years now. I've never really had a "reason" for doing my business, but more "seasons" of selling. I was either paying for a wedding, or needing money to pay a bill... but I never had a real "reason" for working my business. Until now. All of my profits from my facials, parties, or my personal website will go straight to a savings account for the adoption process.
Bobby- I love my husband. I say that all the time, but I REALLY love my husband for this fundraising idea. He is making clocks. Yes, clocks... out of vinyl records! How fun is that?!?! Here's some pictures to help you understand what he's doing:
Yes, he made a clock out of Duck Hunt! And it looks awesome!
He has a page on Facebook called Rock around the "clocks" that shows all of our new clocks and ideas to make clocks. We'll be doing craft fairs and online selling for these items.
Our neighbors completely surprised us by setting up a fundraising website for us. The fundraiser is going from now until January 31, 2013 and you can look at it here. Once I figure out how to do a widget, I'll add it to the blog. Wooo hoo!
I think that's it for now. I will try my hardest to be more consistent. That seems to be my downfall lately.
