Tip Night

Our friends and family have been kind enough to help us with a Pizza Ranch Tip Night! We will be doing this on Tuesday, May 11 from 5-8. We will be bussing tables, washing dishes, serving dessert pizzas, refilling glasses, and other various jobs for tips. This is a great fundraiser and the Pizza Ranch is willing to donate a portion of the sales during this time. We understand this is a very busy time of year for everyone so just having a night where you can come, eat, & let us serve you will be just what you need. If anyone needs an excuse not to cook for a night, this is it! There is a concert at SCCS that night for grades 5-8 but come and enjoy some pizza before the concert! There will be a tip bucket there and any checks can be made out to Bethel CRC.

Still waiting on fingerprints!! We are going to make a phone call today if they didn't come to see how much longer. This is the only thing holding us up right now. We want this homestudy so that we can apply for a couple of grants that will be having meetings soon & we want to get this in before that. Our profile is all but finished. I'm still working on editing the little things. At some point I just have to click order & be done with it! I bought some crib bedding this weekend that matches the boys' bedding perfectly so we will be working on getting the crib up & ready as soon as it's painted. We did finally have the discussion on whether or not to specify gender. I struggled with doing this since we know that ultimately God is in control of what's best for us but there are some regulations on having opposite genders in the same room and since we only have 1 other bedroom upstairs besides ours, it only makes sense that we specify boy since our boys are already up here. So we will be expecting a boy!! We are excited to see what little guy God has planned for our family!

  2. I just sent you an email. We sent them off 3 weeks ago so I guess it hasn't been too long yet. I know it is nice to plan ahead now but I really struggled with the decision to specify. I really would work better for our family but I didn't want to just take the easy road either! Can't wait to hear back from you!
