"100 Nests"

I'm back already!  Just wanted to let you in on a little holiday fundraiser we just started!  I have been working hard making bird's nest pendants, and they are now available to purchase.  They are $10 each, and our goal is to sell 100 of them of this holiday season to raise $1,000.00 for our adoption fund.  I have a number of pendants already made, or I can make them with custom colors (think birth stone colors, team colors, etc.).  I can also ship up to 5 of them for just $2.  Check out the pictures below -




If you are interested just get in touch with me and we can work out the details.  They would make a great gift or stocking stuffer!

Wow, we've been busy!  So here is what has happened since I last updated in June (wow, didn't seem that long ago!)

We have completed ALL of our paperwork, visits, and requirements.  We are now simply waiting on a call!  Yay!

We took out a personal loan for the remainder of what will be due when placement happens.  That way, we are not held back by just money.  We are definitely still fundraising, we will just be paying back toward the loan instead of stashing it in savings.

So now we are just back to our normal day-to-day lives, knowing that any day would could get that call and be heading to the hospital. 

We have a holiday PNO and my work craft fair coming up to help with more fundraising, and I'll be trying to keep this up to date better!
