Coffee!!





















We have a "Just Love Coffee" store page set up now! $5 from every bag of certified fair trade coffee or t-shirt ordered on our "Coffee for Wallace" store page and a monetary amount from other items (like $1, $3, etc.) goes towards our adoption expenses! Two different "Organic" kinds, a "decaf", and several others! Mmm!!!

Here's a bit more about "Just Love Coffee".

Rob Webb knows coffee. When Rob was two years old, his father started Webb's Coffee Service, which blossomed into a full-blown refreshment service supplying businesses in Nashville, TN and the surrounding areas, and is now run by Rob.

Rob Webb knows the adoption process. In the summer of 2008, Rob and his wife Emily were called to adopt from Ethiopia. After much prayer and discussion with their first two children they started their adoption journey in August 2008. During the flurry of paperwork and preparation, Rob & Emily read books not only on adoption in general, but specifically on Ethiopia. Learning that Ethiopia is the birthplace of coffee caught Rob's attention, and after reading about the living conditions and wages of the average coffee farmer, he was compelled to take action. What developed through his reading and his trip to Ethiopia to unite with his daughters was a realization that he could combine his expertise and longstanding desire to roast his own coffees with his desire to help others. Just Love Coffee Roasters was born! Roasting Fair Trade Specialty coffees, Just Love uses proceeds to help an Ethiopian orphanage and families adopting not just from Ethiopia, but from anywhere in the world.

We're selling this little dress to raise funds for USCIS fees. It's an average 2-3t size, 100% cotton. It comes with darling little matching bloomers! I included plenty of pictures (maybe just because our "model" was adorable - he, he!). If you want to help us raise funds for Wallace's adoption by purchasing this dress please contact us at: rilysily@hotmail.com and let us know! (suggested donation $30 plus shipping costs). Once we confirm it's still available then you can donate via our "chipin" on this or our rilysilyfamily.blogspot.com page. I know this dress is going to a very special little girl!
