Announcement!!
To all of our family and friends,
We hope to find all is well with you and your family. We are sending this letter to inform you of an exciting time in our family. After many years of extensive testing and much prayer we have decided as a family to adopt. After searching and praying about many adoption services we have chosen to adopt through LDS Family Services. The adoption process can be an exciting, yet long and expensive, process. We have created a blog regarding our adoption process. If you would like to follow along with us every step of the way, or help in any way, please visit:

If you are wondering what to do to help us, here are some ways that you can help our dreams come true. First and foremost, if you know of a birthmother that wants to give her child a loving home please refer her to LDS Family Services. Our contact there is Brad and he can be reached at (702) 385-1072.
Secondly, we are trying to raise money to help with the financial expenses of adoption. Some of the ways you can help is by buying gifts to give to someone, donate your time at special events, donate talents you may have kept hidden, or any other way you can think of. Katie has begun to sale Scentsy products that would be a great gift for you, friends, or family. Her personal website is www.scentsy.com/katierogers where you can browse and buy products anytime directly from her.
Katie, and some of our close family members, have started making and selling baby items. These include booties, blankets, burp rags, hats, head bands, and hair clips. You can find out more at www.handmadesweetsomethings.blogspot.com
Last, but not least, we will be trying to put some fundraisers together. If you have donations for a Garage Sale, Bake Sale, Craft Sale, or would like to volunteer your time or talents for these events, please contact us by phone, email, or mail.
We have always known that there are more children for us. Our family is really excited to begin this new chapter in our lives. With the help of family and friends, we know this can happen. Again, we want to express our thanks to all of you for your love and support.
With much love,
Shane, Katie, and Braydon Rogers
P.S: Our first big fundraiser event will be a Summer Yard Sale, held in
I am so proud of Katie and Shane and have been working very hard to help them! I have been spending most of my time crocheting baby booties and beanies. We are selling these items on Etsy (you can access Etsy through Sweet Something's) You can also contact any of us and let us know of any way you can help! Any prayers, donations or items to sell, will be greatly appreciated! Again, thank you!
