We are back!
It's been a while since we have posted about the adoption especially about a new adoption fundraiser!
Let the Scentsy Party begin!
If you are a lady, I'm sure you have heard about Scentsy and everything they have to offer. They have some fabulous scents along with cute frangrance holders. Check out our very own Scentsy Party. Don't wait too long, because this party will end May 31! Scentsy makes great gifts especially for mothers. Don't forget Mother's Day is Sunday, May 11!
A HUGE thank you to Bonnie Yates, a super sweet childhood friend, who offered to host a party for us back when we announced our adoption. We are continually blessed with people who support our journey to bring home Paisley. She is already one blessed and loved little girl.

"A Few of Leslie's Favorite Things" Auction-The Rules and Posts
This auction is now CLOSED. Thank you to all who participated!
As we have been hinting around all month long, it is time for the "A Few of Leslie's Favorite Things" blog auction! I am super excited about this one since it encompasses literally a few of my favorite things. So enough of the chit-chat. Let's get this auction started.
The Rules
Each item has its own post in order to make bidding easy. I have started the bidding of each item at 30% of the retail price. No bids will be considered if posted on this post. Make sure you post your bid on the item's post in order to be considered. Links to each post are listed below.
Make sure when leaving your bid price that you leave an email address as well. If you win the item, this will be the way that I contact you to work out the details of receiving your item, payment, etc. Make sure that your payment is mailed promptly so the details can be worked out with each of the supporters in receiving your item. Once the item is awarded to the highest bidder, the supporter will mail the item directly to you, hence the reason for leaving your email address with your bid in order to work out the details.
The Supporters and the Items
Please show some love for each of these supporters by liking their Facebook pages, Instagram pages, and Twitter pages. If led, drop them a message telling them how generous they are to donate. These are some pretty great ladies! I am truly blown away by their generosity and can't thank them enough!
As always, please let me know if you have any questions. My email address is lesliebtodd@gmail.com.
Let's get this auction started!
True Love Ring by Amy Cornwell Designs (Auction)
This auction is now CLOSED. Thank you to all who participated!
I first found out about Amy Cornwell Designs jewelry through a high school friend and fell in love with Amy's jewelry. Each piece of jewelry is handmade with love and devotion. I actually own 2 pieces of her jewelry and would love to own her True Love Ring, which is up for grabs today.
True Love Ring by Amy Cornwell Designs
As described on the Amy Cornwell Designs shop:
This wonderful ring starts with twisted sterling wire that is paired with a sweet domed heart that is stamped with you and your love's initials. A beautiful reminder of the true love in your life!
You can have initials separated by an ampersand (shown), three initials or simply leave the heart blank. The letters are lowercase typewriter font (the lowercase "L" can look like a 1). There are multiple options, so please see the pictures for descriptions! The lowercase fancy font includes letters and numbers.
Important details about this ring:
1. Eventually the darkening of the letters will most likely wear off due to the doming of the heart and washing of hands. It can be left natural for a subtle look, or redarkened for a $2.50 shipping fee. I also offer DIY instructions for redarkening (with a polishing square included) as an option for a small fee.
2. These bands are thin, so it can feel like it runs large. If you're between sizes please choose the smaller size.
Check out the Amy Cornwell website, Facebook page, Instagram, and Twitter pages for more information concerning her shop.
This hand-stamped ring retails for $27.50. The bidding begins at $8.25.
"Sweet Home Alabama" by Mandipidy (Auction)
This auction is now CLOSED. Thank you to all who participated!
If you love artwork and quotes, then you will love Mandipidy's quotable art. Mandy, as she is known outside of her creative world, creates each drawing with her own beautiful style. Mom introduced Sissy and me to her work by giving us the Sweet Home Alabama picture to hang in our home. And I love it! Since then, we have purchased another print which hangs wonderfully in our home. Don't you just love this deer print referencing one of my favorite Bible verses?
The Sweet Home Alabama print is an 8x10 picture is one of Mandy's original artwork. It comes unframed on 8.5"x11" recycled white linen paper for high quality and a long-lasting product.

Since our adoption theme is "Anchored in Faith", the "We Have this Hope-Hebrews 6:19" picture goes along great with our theme. This 8x10 picture is one of Mandy's original artwork. It comes unframed on 8.5"x11" recycled white linen paper for high quality and a long-lasting product.

How adorable is this bibdana? Even though Corrie has designed this bib for a little boy, it can also be for a little girl. I love the different patterns and the simplicity of the colors. This bibdana is pieced from 4 different fabrics.
