Here are a few quick recaps of what's been going on with us.
Saturday, April 5th, our friends and family hosted an adoption shower for us at church! We got all kinds of fun stuff for our kids!
Thankful for these girls! They helped host this awesome shower together!
We're ready for summer with bikes for all three kiddos!
Kim's parents
Gareth's mom and siblings
Sisters-in-law and fabulous hostesses
Hungarian friends!
The next event quickly followed on Monday, April 7th, with Newk's Night hosted in Hattiesburg!
We didn't take a single picture, but we DID raise $1,499 towards our adoption!! We had a lot of people come out and support us! It was such a fun and encouraging time for us!
Gareth's colleagues generously sponsored a lunch fundraiser at his school. Each teacher brought a different dish, and they all put donations in a bucket to "pay" for their lunches. They donated $453!

Finally, on Saturday we hosted a house concert by the very talented Abbye West Pates. We invited our neighbors, cooked up some dinner, and had a great time of fellowship. We raised $158 and made some new friends!
I hope you'll check out her music! She and her husband, Jeff, are fantastic musicians.
Yes, all of that was in one week! It was a good one :)
Right now we are waiting for our immigration provisional approval. We should know next week when we will get to travel to Hungary!
Can't wait to book our tickets!!
