Hello All! I am not one to usually do major sales, not it my genes (although it is in Dan's); but I am here today asking for help! Do to all the chaos with the embassy, we are now facing a $1400 bill that is growing! Our boys are still stuck in Ethiopia and we are anxiously waiting to ge thtem home. Unfortunately, the embassy keeps requesting additional stuff. One of our boys' birthmothers has had to make two trips back to the city, one for an interview, the other for a DNA test to be done. That was collected the other day and now they are requesting originals of documents. this requires paper to be brought up from the original orphange the boys were relinquished to. Usually copies are submitted because theoriginals are kept with the childs file at the original orphange. So, long story short, boys are not home yet, we are accruing a larger bill, thanks to the US embassy, and we don't have the funds to cover it!
So, on to the GOOD NEWS! we are fundraising though the Ordinary Hero Store They have tons of great stuff! We will receive 40% off of everything we sell. If you do buy through them, when you check out, there is a place where you can choose and AFFILIATE NAME! This is important!!! This is where you click and choose 'SIMMONS, DAN and TARA!!! Please help! There is also a grant contest going on, so the top three sellers from now until midnight on the 11th will receive an additional $500! That's huge! If we could sell $1000 dollars of merchandise, we would receive $400 towards or adoption, and if hopefully we are one of the top three sellers, we would get an aditional $500. That's $900 towards our new embassy bill!!!
We are here, humbly asking for help. I will tell you that we do have a shirt from Ordinary Hero, as well as Mason does, and they are super soft! Worth every penny!
So please, spread the word. I will be doing a facebook post also. Please, share the info with your friends as well! Spread the word on and on and get some Christmas shopping done for a good cause!!! Make sure if you share the news of the push to sale that you share to choose Dan and Tara Simmons as the Affiliate!
Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!!
Here are a few cute pictures of Mason in his Ordinary Hero t-shirt! He loves it, it is super soft!

Morning Sweetheart! Good luck on the fundraiser. By the way, you might like to read last weeks sermon as I used portions of your blog as example of modern day "where is God in all this" which went very well with Isaiah and Advent. Love, Dad
