January Update

All of the waiting couples listed before us at the agency are off the list, so while that doesn't guarantee that we will be next, we think we will be getting a call very soon! 

We reached our goal with our "100 Nests" fundraiser in just over a month, and we added an additional $1,194 to our loan payment last week - just from the sale of the pendants.  We have already sold more pendants, and have some ideas for future fundraising.  Things are going well!

We really planned for Christmas this year and it wasn't difficult for us to get back on track financially after the holidays were over.  Both Klif and I have been doing exceptionally well watching our money, and we've made some minor adjustments to make it even easier.  The temperature in the house went down, the cable was cancelled, and we are doing really well sticking to the grocery budget and meal plan.

For now it is just continuing with saving and fundraising, and waiting for that call!
