First, two things I know you are dying to know:
1) Jace weighs 25 pounds.
2) This fundraising raffle raised a total of $2986 for our adoption fund. WOW. That is all we can say. We are truly grateful. Thank you, thank you, thank you to all who donated prizes, donate money, shared the link, etc.
Now for the winners! There were quite a few people who donated money but did not leave a comment, so we took the liberty of entering them in, unless they specified not to. We also gave an entry (or an extra entry) for each person who donated the prizes. They deserve that, don't ya think?
So, that left us with a total of 101 entries.
Without further ado, the winners: (all winners picked using random.org generator. I don't know how to copy and paste the screen shot, so you will just have to trust us on each of these. Devin helped the entire time, so it is on our honor)
1) The Winner of Hilary's Blog template from Simply Yours Designs: Rachel Averett
2) Four Passes to the Quarry: (Local rock-climbing gym): Lara Strobel
3) Target Gift card: Shaun and Lanette Nelson
4) The Rag Quilt: Jaime Brady
5) Raggedy Ann and Andy Dolls: Sharlene (sorry, we don't have a last name for you! Hopefully you know who you are!)
6) Personalized Memory Bear: Lisa Jastal
7) Baby Cowboy Booties: Camille Black
8) Custom Greeting Card from Every Making Moment: Bree
9) Custom Tutu: Christen Danielson
10) Cheesecake Factory gift card: Renae Sexton

What a special group of people!
I am so thrilled for your family, most importantly your MF. She was breathtaking in those photos from the orphanage and I know, like Grace, she will change before your eyes. So many people commented on how her whole face changed while we were in Ecuador and then once we settled in even more-so. Something about having a family transforms these little ones.
Haha! I had to laugh that Camille won the baby cowboy booties! I will tell her that they better get used! I am so impressed with your raffle! Maybe I should do one to support Jonny in school. Okay, maybe that wouldn't work. But, what a blessing! We are so happy for you! I want to do a 'family dance' just to celebrate. And how long after the adoption can you be sealed to her? MF is one lucky little lady to come to such a special family.
Oh and I just had to say that Hinx is only 22 lbs! Haha and he was totally bigger compared to Jace back in Aug. My little guy started crawling and has only gained 1 lb since then. I can't wait to see Jace now. SOOO fun! And can you use your cell in Ecuador??
haha I laughed about the booties as well. :) But super excited to win!! I never win raffles! I can't decide if I should keep them myself or give them as a baby shower gift- they are so cute! Thanks for doing the raffle Kim!!!!
