Yard Sale Success!

I wanted to let you all know our SPRING ADOPTION FUNDRAISER went GREAT! We are in awe at the number of donations we received from our friends, co-workers and family. We began collecting items in January and started dropping items off at the Brimhall's home last Monday. By Friday their garage was so full of boxes, furniture and bags that both cars had to be parked on the street! We even had friends donating tables and props for displays! And added blessing.... Aunt Jean and Uncle Gil drove up from Oregon bearing more yard sale donations and some were from their neighbors whom we've never even met and in the midst of the chaos, they were able to help us set up and price stuff Friday night…and it was a long night! SO AWESOME!

We had so many donations...light fixtures, linens, pet supplies, electronics, furniture, decor, toys, games, clothes, shoes, purses, sports equipment, house wares, you name it, we had it. We were the best yard sale in the entire tract! Eva's Sale launched 8am Saturday and went steady until 3 pm. On top of it being the most beautiful day of the year, we had a tremendous turn out! David and I were able to share about our adoption journey with so many people and it was great to get so much positive feedback and support from the community! Even the neighbors next door donated $50 to Eva's adoption fund!

It is difficult to express the gratitude we feel ....the love and support is overwhelming. This fundraiser exceeded our expectations and is a total answer to prayer! As we continue to seek guidance and provision from the Lord, He continues to confirm us and provide for this adoption!
Thank you Lord! Thanks to MDH David, my Mom, Paula, Neal, Jessie and John, Aunt Jean and Uncle Gil, Tommie, Lori, Heather, Steve and Jeannie, Lisa and Jake, Kim, Kathy, Brianne. Thanks to everyone who prayed for us, gave of their time and energy and space ;o), for everyone who donated, and for those who stopped by and bought stuff! Thank you so much!
