Our God is awesome!
We made it! Thank you to everyone that has helped us in this journey so far. We are living proof that God loves to pour out blessings on His children. August has been a big month for us so far. The goal was hit for our matching grant from Hand in Hand and now we are off and running on the next thing through Both Hands. This is a very cool thing, we get a group of folks, help fix up the home of a local widow as the team sends out support letters. If all goes well with that we believe that we will be able to travel to China to pick up Timothy and Annabelle! Check out the pics. Is it weird that Timothy reminds me of Hunter? Ali already has pictures of them hanging in her room. Bethany sent a care package to Annabelle and we got to see pictures of her going through it. Such a great thing to see. Our adoption agency sent a medical team to the orphanage for check ups. Turns out that a lady that goes to our church knows someone that was on that team. We didn't know that this was happening but she went and was able to take pictures of Timothy and Annabelle. I was just floored when that email came through! I am just amazed at how our God takes care of all the little things to make sure that we know that He is in control, how He reminds us that He is working for us in all things. This has been a great adventure so far! Can't wait to see how it ends!
Thanks to you, Awesome Donors!

Angel Girl is home!
Glad she is home, but understand her heart for wanting to be back in the D.R. It'll change your life!
So proud of her for working to earn her way. She set her mind to it and earned almost all of the $1,200 it took to get her there. We are grateful to those who donated toward her trip. Thank you! It's so humbling to see God working in your children...and such a blessing!
