Made from the Heart

Does anyone have a little girl or know a little girl with cold ears or loves head bands? So many many thanks to my friend Keturah Hochmuth! Keturah is willing to make an amazing donation through her talents. She really enjoys crafting girl hats and head bands by requests and is donating 50% of the proceeds to our adoption!!!Also, they are adorable! What an awesome and generous gesture!  She is a huge blessing and we are eternally grateful! Keturah has a facebook page and she takes requests on that facbook page if you are interested in requesting something for her to make.  The link is below!!! Check it out!

Made from the Heart

With so much love,
Rachel and Luke

Home Visit/ Timeline

So this last Tuesday morning our social worker came over to our house to call us "worthy" parents. We had spent soooooo much time cleaning out the garage, the basement, and the rest of the house. We put in smoke detectors in every room, two fire extinguishers, and a couple carbon monoxide detectors....you know, the normal things expecting parents all buy for their homes! She came on in, asked us a few questions, and did a 2 minute tour! She didn't go in the garage or the basement and barely looked at anything.  She most likely saw most things without us even noticing. We love her! Hope you're ready this Emilee! We asked a few questions ourselves which were mostly about the upcoming events for us. She is hoping to complete our home study by the end of December. She also gave us what we need for our Kyrgyzstan dossier (paperwork that the officials over there need). We will be set to START waiting hopefully in January! Yahoo! Just giving you guys as much of a timeline that we have so far. We are also still taking fundraising ideas! Until next time! Brick can't wait....
