"Official" Rules for our Auction

First and foremost, the bidding will begin no earlier than 8am on Friday, July 27.  AND...it will end no later than 8pm on Friday, August 3. 

We tried to make this very easy for all of you.  You can either scroll through the list of items that are listed as an individual post, or....should you prefer each item is listed on the right hand side and simply clicking on it will get you right to where you need to be.  When you find the item you would like to bid on, you only need to click on "Comment" at the end of the post and type your bid along with your name and e-mail address so we can reach you.  Please pay attention to the bid amount above yours and make sure it increases in rounded dollar increments.  

We will contact the highest bidder once the bidding has closed via e-mail.  From there we will give you options for payment and delivery/pick-up of your item.  If you live out of town (and we love you!) we can arrange for shipping.  If you have any questions/concerns please do not hesitate to e-mail us at: adoptionfundraiser321@gmail.com

Thanks so much and Let the Bidding Begin!

Our Generous Donaters

We would like to thank those who donated to this great cause.  You have no idea what this means to both our families.  Thank you just doesn't cut it, but....for now that will have to do.  We pray Jesus blesses you all as you have blessed us!
