***UPDATE TO CHOICE 2 PART OF RAFFLE***

Hi Everyone...

It has come to our attention that many people have been wondering if it would be OK to just pick what they would like to win in Choice 2 of our raffle.  Dean and I have discussed it and said that would be fine.  So, for now on if you choose Choice 2 of the raffle for your tickets, please let us know where you would like your tickets to go to.  For example....If you bought $25 worth of tickets, which is 20 tickets, and you want 10 to go to Choice 1 for the Kindle Fire and the other 10 to go to Choice 2...5 for the Amazon gift card, 2 for the Disney Vinlymation and 3 to the lucky lady bug.  I will put what they are for on the ticket so I know where to put it in for.  I hope that makes since.  If you have already purchased tickets and want to move them around, please email me and let me know by Saturday morning.  The raffle will be held this Saturday 9/29 at 4 pm or 7pm est.  We will post on the blog who wins w/a video and pics.  We will email or call the winners.  We will get them all out in the mail next week.
GOOD LUCK EVERYONE!!!  Thank you so much for all of your help.  You guys have all been very supportive and helpful.  We can't wait till we are able to share with everyone when we get our referral of our daughter.  

Hugs..
Cyndi & Dean  

UPDATE!!!!!

UPDATE to the Raffle....

We have returned the original Kindle Fire and upgraded it to the new Kindle Fire HD w/camera.  This one is thinner and has a 16 GB storage.  It also has a camera for FaceTime. It says that it has faster WiFi then the original one.  It is really nice.  I'm hoping this will entice more people to buy tickets.  If you haven't bought tickets yet you still have time.  We have 2 weeks left.  There isn't many people in the Choice 2 raffle.  Remember you can split your tickets up how ever you wish to.  The prizes in Choice 2 will be raffled individually. 

We would like to THANK all of you who have already donated to our raffle.  Thank you so much for all of your help.  Hugs..

We just got another Donation for our raffle.  This wonderful Disney 2-Disc DVD of Bambi.  This was donated by my high school friend, Jenny Stout-Brimhall.  We would like to personally thank Jenny for this donation to our raffle.  This will be added to Choice 2.  Someone could win this great movie.  Please buy your tickets.  The raffle will be held on 9/29 in the evening.  You still have time to buy.  Help us bring our Alicyn Shea home.
