Winners!

First of all, thank you to all who donated and bid! Your generosity is greatly appreciated! Steve and Julie are now a little bit closer to bringing Ruthie home! Praise God! 

Winners are listed below. Please pay for your item through Steve's and Julie's paypal account (button is on the right of the blog), or, if you wish, you can mail a check for the amount. If you would like to mail a check, email jlstv4630(at)bellsouth(dot)net for the address. If the item is custom made, the item's donor will be contacting you for your preferences for colors, fabrics, sizes, etc. After the payment is received, the item will be shipped to you or hand delivered.

If we haven't received your payment by Wednesday March 14th, I'll send a reminder. If we don't receive it by March 18th, the item will go to the next highest bidder. Also, if you aren't contacted by the item's donor regarding custom made products, please email me and I'll remind the donor.

If you didn't win the item of your choice (or didn't bid), a donation to their adoption fund would still be greatly appreciated!

Adoption Auction for the Boyd's

Our friends, Steve and Julie Boyd, are adopting a precious little girl from China. Please read about their journey.  


Please meet Mao Si Dan, soon to be known as Ruthie Grace Boyd.
She was born February 2, 2011 and will prayerfully join her forever family this summer!

To help them raise money, we're lauching an online silent auction. It will be open for one week, until midnight on March 10th.

A big THANK YOU to everyone who made this auction possible!! We've listed the names of the donors, so please consider them when you have a need similar to an item they've donated. We are grateful for their hearts towards adoption!


How the Auction Works:


1. Browse through the items up for auction. Remember, the auction ends March 10th.


2. BID! To bid, please COMMENT and leave your:
                           Name
                           E-mail address
                           Bid amount


3. Keep checking on your favorite items in case someone outbids you! Remember, auction closes at midnight, March 10th. (I think, if you follow this blog, you should get an email anytime someone comments after you.)

4. I will post the winners on Sunday, March 11th. Please check back to see if you won and pay for your item through Steve's and Julie's paypal account (button is on the blog), or, if you wish, you can mail a check for the amount. If you would like to mail a check, email jlstv4630(at)bellsouth(dot)net for the address. If the item is custom made, the item's donor will be contacting you for your preferences for colors, fabrics, sizes, etc. After the payment is received, the item will be shipped to you or hand delivered.

5. If we haven't received your payment by Wednesday March 14th, I'll send a reminder. If we don't receive it by March 18th, the item will go to the next highest bidder. Also, if you aren't contacted by the item's donor regarding custom made products, please email me and I'll remind the donor.

6. If you don't see anything you want, please consider still donating a few dollars to this wonderful family trying to bring home their baby from China!

If you have questions about any of the products or have trouble bidding, please email me at
bevin(dot)tomlin(at)yahoo.com. (Apparently typing it this way prevents spam.) 

One last request...if you live outside of the Birmingham / Tuscaloosa area, please consider donating a few extra dollars to cover shipping on larger items. Thanks!
