Airfare!!!

I forgot to mention in the previous post the H family blessed us with a donation toward our adoption. We are also now saving money for the projected costs of airfare and accommodations! I'm so very happy that everything is paid for!!!! This is totally doable... even though, it may cost nearly $11k! But that's chump change to God!

So, the H's put $100 toward our first airline ticket! That is 10% or thereabouts of the cost of a ticket from here to Cali or Bogota (a little cheaper, but it fluctuates it seems, b/c of oil prices & economy). So, my personal goal is to save at least the estimated $5400 for airfare and if needed we could charge the hotel costs in Colombia. Anyways... I'm super excited that I had a large number of consults last week and will get to hopefully add $900 to that $100!!! It all depends on how much Uncle Sam or Pres. Barack wanna take.

Anyways, that's pretty exciting to me! What about you? I also have one person who has asked me to take pics for her and agreed to donate toward the adoption! So yay! I have another friend who agreed to help take pics for mini sessions, also. We will see how that works out...if not a successful fundraiser, at least I'll get practice shooting!

So send me your thoughts, and if you have creative ways in saving money, share them with us! We'd love to hear what you're doing... and really, I just love comments anyways...
