Love is in the air.

Oh yes it is. :)

You may notice a new tab up at the top of this page: “Valentines”. Last year we designed and sold Valentines as PDF downloads to help raise money for our adoption. Now we’re doing it again!

You might be thinking: “I thought they were all done fundraising!” Well, we thought so, too.

It turns out that we didn’t raise quite enough money after all. We were just going off of estimates and suggested price ranges, and we hoped for the best. But some things have already cost quite a bit more than we budgeted. For example, our attorney fee was almost $1000 more than we anticipated. And out hotel is about $30 more per night than we thought it would be. That adds up over the course of 4-8 weeks.

Some of this is due to prices changing, but a lot of it is due to a weak US dollar and a strong Colombian peso. The exchange rate isn’t as good as it used to be.

So, that’s the skinny. We’ve put together two new sets of Valentines for sale this year, and we have the same sets available that we sold last year, too. If you’re planning on buying Valentines, please consider buying from us!

And please spread the word, even if you don’t need to buy Valentines yourself. Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest, whatever your social media drug of choice may be…we’d be forever grateful! :)

We leave you with some more pictures to enjoy! Thanks so much for your love and support.
