In late March I had a little fundraising idea (fully God inspired in my opinion). Why not have a cheesecake auction on Facebook? I told Randy I would see if there was any interest and then go from there. Well, if you have followed my Facebook page at all, the interest was there and my kitchen turned into a cheesecake factory! My thought was that one or two cheesecake auctions would bring in around $100 which could be used for paperwork processing fees at the state level. Shows you what I know!
These two pictures posted on Facebook . . . .
the generosity of friends (that still brings me to tears), and the sale of 5 cheesecakes helped us raise $560! This is HUGE!!! Let me break it down for you. I just sent half of our paperwork to the Chinese consulate in San Francisco. The cost was $480. After we receive our USCIS approval (fingerprinted yesterday - hopefully to have the paperwork in hand in a few weeks) the final stack gets sent to the state which will cost $75. I will give you a moment to do the math . . . . . That totals $555. God is SOOOOOOO amazing and works through the people around us more than we/you will ever know!
Feeling thankful!
