Fiona...

My brother and sister-in-law are going to begin the process to adopt a beautiful 5 year old girl from Uganda. They have been trying for a second child for several years without any luck and after some of their very good friends began the process to adopt two sisters from Uganda they found out about another child available, a 5 year old girl named Fiona. Because the adoption process is long and tedious (and very expensive) we're thinking we shold hold a rummage/craft/bake sale fundraiser next spring for the family, not only to cover the cost of the adoption but also to help cover the cost of the mandatory 3 week trip to Africa to determine custody and finalize the paperwork before bringing Fiona 'home'. They've got a long road to go but I'm confident we can get some help for them. If any of you have any experience holding a craft/bake/rummage sale (or just some good ideas) we'd appreciate it!
