Thank You to everyone who participated! We were able to raise $2,000 to help with our legal fees! You all are such a blessing to us!

We still need $7,200 left to raise which is amazing since our fees were $40,000! GO GOD!

We are still taking donations ( they are tax deductible) and we still have lots of amazing Shirts!

We are beyond blessed! We cannot thank you all enough.

Kindle Fire giveaway!

Tomorrow is the drawing for the Kindle Fire......Ticket are 1/2 price...you can get 20 tickets for 20 bucks! All proceeds go towards bringing home baby Garber!

We also have T-shirts....we're hoping to sell 15 more today so we can get them ordered tomorrow and have them sent out next week. Spread the word, and help us reach our goals!

Our Legal fees are due 1 month from today....God is Big....we can do it!

Less Than a month!

In less than a month we have to have ALL of the money to finalize our adoption! We are almost there folks! We are about $5,000 short, which is chump change to God.

I know some people think, "if you can't afford adoption costs how will you afford a child?" This statement hurts a bit. Most of us do not go to a car dealership and pay cash and walk, or ride rather off the lot with a brand new BMW. We take out a loan, or trade in our old car.

Well...since we don't have a child to trade in, like we would do that anyway.....and we know the Lord has picked out this specific little boy for our family we are asking you for help! Help us bring home our boy. You can buy a bracelet, a t-shirt, raffle tickets, or donate to one of our matching grants!

We still have our fingers crossed that one of the HUGE grants we've applied for will come through.

We are praying and hoping that each of you will share our story with others and maybe they'd want to be a part of something life changing.

When are boy is home....this passion of ours will not stop! We want to help others bring home their child as well. If we raise more than enough money we are going to donate the funds to another family just like ours that is hoping, waiting, and praying for their baby to come home.

My 2 cents

I've been thinking about this a lot lately....I thought I would share my thoughts.
We are called to adopt by our Father. We are called to father/mother the fatherless. Is it for the sake of the fatherless, or is it for us?

We are giving children a family and a home who might not otherwise have that. Sometimes people say, "that child is so lucky to have you."

Adoption has been a wild ride and I'm not sure we ever get to get off the ride. I'm not sure I would if I could at this point. Although it is hard, and I mean REALLY hard sometimes, it has changed me! It has made me a better person! I'm thankful that the Lord has chosen us to adopt!

We are lucky! I think everyone should try this at least once! Maybe I'm crazy...and I think you have to be sometimes....but adoption is a blessing to those who are adopting

We are not doing this because we have to....we're doing this because the Lord has told us we "get to" do this.

Simply Love!

Hey Friends and Family!

We are in the final months of waiting to bring home baby Garber. We could not be more excited for our journey as parents. It's been a long time coming!

We still have about $10,000 more to pay in legal fees, so we have come up with creative ways to raise that money.

1st- You can check out our raffle here http://www.perceptionfunding.org/Perceptionfunding/The_Garbers.html You can win a Kindle Fire for as little as $2!

2nd- We have created a t-shirt that says "Simply Love" The Lord has called us to say yes to orphans and to simply love! You have a choice of 2 different T-shirts. The shirts come in Juniors.....go a size up from the women's shirt you would wear....and we are offering unisex sizes, which are standard sizes. $27.95 per shirt. $20 of that goes towards are adopt fees!

3rd- A friend of ours has offered her craftiness in creating "Simply Love" bracelets! They are super cute, and have been seen at Anthropology, Stella & Dot, and on celebrities! All proceeds go to our adoption. Check our these awesome bracelets here.....

Who want's a cool T-shirt?

The Lord says.... "I will come to you, I will not leave you as orphans." John 14:18

It's a Boy!

We received ultrasound pictures in the mail a couple of weeks ago from our attorney. It's so amazing to see our little boy! We have been working hard at writing grants, fundraising, and getting our home ready for the addition 2 feet that will be added to our house in June.

Here is a sneak peak of our nursery....it's mostly done, other than some finishing touches on the walls, etc. As you can see, Molly has been helping!

Please continue to share our story with others!
