Win Another 32" Vizio LCD HDTV!!!

Well you asked for it and we are able to deliver another opportunity to win a NEW 32" VIZIO LCD HDTV! Thanks to a very generous donor, who would like to remain anonymous, we are able to provide you this opportunity just in time for you to win the TV before the Super Bowl and March Madness!

So, we are doing this giveaway a little differently then we did the last TV giveaway. Since we have family and friends in multiple locations and not everyone wants to give online, we have also created raffle tickets that you can get when you pay for your entry into the drawing. You can see us or our parents to pay and receive your raffle ticket or you can still pay online through our GiveForward on the right hand side of the blog or mail us a check and we will then mail you your ticket stubs. We thought this will help provide you a reminder of when the drawing will be, as well as remind you of the amazing cause that you donated to.

By now you are probably very familiar with how you can have a chance to win this AWESOME TV. For those of you that may have forgotten or this is your 1st time to our blog, here are the rules on how you can be entered in for a chance to win this giveaway.

For every $5 donated until January 22nd, we'll enter your name into the give-a-way for this 32" VIZIO LCD HDTV. (So, for $20 you will receive 4 entries and so forth.) Give the post a shot out on Facebook or Twitter (pastorkellyb) and we'
ll enter you in again. On January 23rd, well do a random selection and someone will be watching the games on this brand new TV!!!!!

We appreciate your generous gift and support as we go through this adoption.

Final Home Study...Check!!!

Today we completed our final home study! It feels like after 2 years of struggling with the longing to be parents but unable to have children that we have just taken one huge step forward in our adoption process. Now, we still have to wait to receive our "official" approval letter from Bethany but we should begin the waiting process for placement starting sometime in January. The process has been such a smooth and easy journey so far. We have the most amazing case worker who we have truly enjoyed getting to know. Here is a picture that I took today with her at our final home study.


Please continue to keep us in your prayers as this is the hardest part of the process...the waiting period. We hope it goes by quickly but we know that in God's timing that He will bring us and our baby together. Also, keep checking our blog for continued updates as well as information on monthly basket giveaways that we will be having. Check out our Direct Selling Into December basket, which ends on December 15, and how you can be entered in for a chance to win this great basket for gifts for yourself or to finish up some last minute Christmas shopping.
