Puzzle Update #4

I hope you've been enjoying watching our puzzle coming together.  We are thrilled to share that there have been 191 pieces purchased so far making us 75.8% of the way complete!!!  Our Puzzle Fundraiser was rolled out just two weeks ago and we are immensely grateful to all those that are buying pieces and praying for everything to come together so we can get Simmie home!  

We should have an update on our adoption process on Monday (stay tuned...) and I will include some new pics of our sweet baby in that post.

So here is the progress as of today:

HOW IT WORKS:

• Each puzzle piece costs $10, and you can choose any number of them to buy. Even 1 is a huge blessing for us!
• There are 252 pieces in this puzzle bringing the total to $2,520 when they all sell!
• We had two identical puzzles made, so the first one will be sent out to those that "bought" a piece. Yes, we are going to mail you the puzzle piece(s) you bought so you can remember that you are really part of bringing Simmie home!
• The second puzzle is going to be put together as the pieces are bought, and we are going to write the name of the person/ family that purchased them on the back so we will always have the memory of who helped be the last pieces of the puzzle to get Simmie here! This puzzle will ultimately be framed and put up in his room.
• We plan on updating our blog every few days with the progress of the puzzle so everyone can see how it's coming together.

You can buy puzzle pieces in one of two ways:

1- The PayPal button on the top right hand side of our blog is a fast and easy way!

2- We also have an account set up with Helping Hands Ministries, and they offer a tax-deductible receipt for any donations to our adoption account. To donate this way go to Helping Hands Ministries site and under "Project Category" select "Adoption" and then under "Project" select Morgan and Randee Jones (yes, Trace is Morgan =) Once our fundraiser is over a check will be sent directly to our agency with the funds raised through Helping Hands. The important thing to remember if you choose to make a donation this way is to email us letting us know so we can get your address and send the puzzle pieces to you!

Whether you are able to buy any puzzle pieces or not, we ask for your prayers! We are truly in the home stretch of getting everything ready to bring our son home and appreciate your prayers as we move closer and closer to that wonderful day!
