Guest Post- You're Invited

Hi there. I am Ali Fogarty of Tripping Over Toys and I am doing my first ever "guest post." My hubby and I have been friends with the Cassadas since college. We are so excited for their growing family. Now they'll have more boys than us ;)

I know you all are anxiously waiting for the Cassada boys to come HOME. So many of you have been praying for them and your comments on this blog have encouraged Courtney so much. Thank you!

I wanted to do something to help Courtney prepare for the trip, but I don't live close by. Many of you have also asked how you can help. Well, now is your chance. It's not an actual "shower" but we can shower them with gifts. I asked Courtney to register for items they will need for their trip and for welcoming the boys home. Please feel no pressure. Give only if it blesses you to give!

They would love to receive the items by May 30th.
There is still no exact date of departure and they may not actually need the items by May 30th, but they will need time to buy what is left on the list. Any money they receive above and beyond what they need for travel will be used to buy formula, diapers and anything else the orphanage needs once they are in Rwanda. They are not permitted to take donations into the country, but they can purchase items for donation once they are there. This helps stimulate their economy - which is a good thing!
Thank you!
Ali Fogarty
