Ok so I am really horrible at blogging. I'm really great at Facebook though :-)
We FINALLY got our completed Home Study the middle of June. Then we were free to apply with USCIS! This is an approval process through US Immigration. We are waiting on a date to be able to get our Federal Fingerprinting completed. Once we get our approval, we can then submit our Dossier (all of the documents, letters of recommendation, physical exams, photos, etc..) to our adoption agency. Then we wait :-)
We have raised about $11,000 ($8,250 for the initial agency fees, $1,100 for the home study, $900 for USCIS). Our next payment of $4500 will be due once we submit our dossier. We still need to raise about $3,600 to meet that payment. We have 2 fundraisers in the works. A uniform sale (more information to come) and a Thirty-One online sale. Super big thanks to Emily Rowley for hosting this fundraiser party for us!! The party will be open until July 28th. You can access our fundraiser by clicking on this link:
