Prizes prizes everywhere!

I am finally pulling myself away from staring at some cute photos of two certain boys and rolling out our prizes or "thank you gifts" for any donations to help us get these boys home!..... Ok...wait....one more cute pic....I just can't help myself...
 ...ok, whew! I feel better now. ;)

We are stepping out and reaching out to ask for help...not the easiest thing to do but we know that God can call many to rise up and walk this journey with us. These dual adoption expenses are kicking our butt but those dual smiles are just so, so worth it! So thank you for considering helping us along this journey!  Without further ado....the prizes!!

Kim at Wheat & Wildflowers has generously donated the "Wo Ai Ni" necklace!


Wheat and {Wildflowers}


A $25 Starbucks* gift card!

A blog makeover by Alexis! She redesigned my blog a few months ago and this precious 16 year old girl not only has some mad blogging skillz but she has a huge heart for the orphan and her proceeds go to support missions. She is donating one basic blog makeover package! This makeover will include: a custom header, a custom template, background colors/papers, and coordinating font colors



The rockin ladies over at Wild Olive have donated one short sleeve shirt of your choice shipping included!

A sweet bracelet by the Purple Pearl.

Boy Mom Designs has generously donated this long sleeve tee!
It's just one of many oh so cute designs they have over there! They also have Girl Mom tees....but I wouldn't know anything about that. ;) Check em out!

My dear friend Yvonne has generously donated a Scentsy Warmer to be given away for our raffle!!
Can I get a woot-woot?!



We merciously have had a Scentsy warmer for quite some time and it masks the smell of sweaty boy fills our home with luscious fragrance.
Along with this warmer she is including 3 fall-themed scentsy bars!

The rockin ladies over at 147 Million are donating a tee as part of our raffle! They have some new designs that they are rolling out so head on over here and check em out!
You will be able to select which tee you would like and sizing and such. Thanks ladies! We are blessed!

My sweet friend Glenda from RocketFoot.com has donated this running shirt!


Give the guys something to read while they're eating your dust. RocketFoot's original, Girl Power inspired, feminine fit tee looks and feels great. Our performance fabric features dry wicking properties that draw moisture away, keeping you cool, comfortable, and looking great. RocketFoot.com

Two handmade candle holders(this will be two separate prizes) made out of wine barrels straight from Napa Valley. My good friend Troi crafts each one by hand and they are naturally stained by the wine that it aged in the barrel on the flip side of each holder. Glass votive holders(not pictured) are included. They are stunning when lit, look great on a window sill and gorgeous inside a fireplace.



Also by Troi a wine stand. Counter-balances your wine bottle! Gorgeous!


My friend Megan has graciously donated a Pampered Chef knife to giveaway on our raffle!
It slices
It dices
It...well, it's a knife so it does all sortsa things!

If you have already donated no worries! I am keeping track to ensure everyone is entered appropriately!
I will draw names and the first person will pick what prize they would like, the second one their chosen prize and so on.
