Home study update and fundraisers!!! :)


Hello everyone! 

Nic and I want to update everyone where we are with our adoption process. Our "paper chase" is progressing along very well. We have collected a majority of our paperwork already. There are a few things we are waiting for in the mail but other than that we are pretty much as far as we can go with our paperwork until our home study process begins. 

Speaking of home study, we have officially selected the agency we are going to be working with throughout the remainder of our adoption. We will be working with St Elizabeth Coleman out of Indianapolis.  Today I will be sending out our completed application form, along with the necessary paperwork and application fee. Once the agency approves our application we have to make a trip to Indy to meet with the agency. Once this is complete, we will be assigned a social worker from northwest Indiana who will need to make a minimum of 4 trips to our house.  We will be sure to update everyone on the home study as it commences. 

Fundraiser reminders: 

June 7 is our dine to donate at Bob Evans in Chesterton. If you present our flyer at checkout, Bob Evans will donate 15% of the total bill to our adoption agency in our name.  

June 22 is our Cornhole, garage sale, bake sale, cook out fundraiser at our church New Life Wesleyan in Chesterton.  Registration for the tournament will begin at 12 and the games will begin at 1. The garage sale will be open from 12-5. Currently we have a lot of baby, toddler, maternity, men's and women's clothes. We have toys, appliances, purses and much more!!! I will continue to update everyone on this fundraiser as it gets closer. 

Thank you everyone for your donations toward our garage sale and your prayers as we continue on our journey to bringing our daughter home!
