They Say It's Your Birthday! We're Gonna Have A Good Time!

Today is my birthday! Woo Hoo! I had a perfect day. Flowers, strawberry ice cream cake, sushi, a new, pink ironman watch, and my awesome family showering me with love. I am so lucky to have them in my life!! God is so good to me. The postcard exchange is going well. I received some great postcards from other DTC families all over the United States and world. It's so much fun to read what they have to say. I will put these in Elizabeth's scrapbook eventually. She'll get a kick out of them. Well, I've been thinking of fundraiser ideas for our adoption. Here they are:
1. yard sale in May
2. cleaning services for a day - April
3. dance lessons - May (I used to teach at Arthur Murray's back in the day)
4. Homemade pies - October
5. 5k fun run - Little Jiaozi Run!
I don't know. Hopefully something will pan out.
We will begin our Secret Buddy Swap in April. We will be swapping with a secret someone until our referral. We're hoping to only have 15 swaps. I think this will make the time go quickly. There are so many great families involved in our lives right now. Have a great day!

Ok, 15 swaps. I love it that means we only wait 15 months...hopefully.
I am so excited about the swap. It will be so fun to get and wrap presents for another family.
