Update!

Well, it looks like things are starting up. We are poised to send out our homestudy application this weekend and we are officially an LLC! So, if people donate money, we can give them a receipt for a tax write off. So, it's mutually beneficial. The IL's are donating several 3-day weekend vacations as well as 2 week long vacations to raffle off! Hopefully this will bring in some $. My folks are donating a week in October at their timeshare in Maine, so I'm hoping with a few fundraisers we can get the ball rolling. We chatted last night with the family friend who adopted a few years ago from Russia. She was so helpful and mentioned a few things that we didn't even think of! She's been great and has explained a ton to my MIL...So, we are going forward and I can't wait to get this show on the road!
