I just want to say “Thank You” To Ken for putting smiles on two little girls faces this afternoon.
Our girls thought it was an April Fools joke I was playing on them and they were very cautious of opening the box but I finally convinced Kaci to open up the box lol.
WOW Kaci was very surprised with the binoculars and I was also when I saw not just one pair but two and I said “Awe” isn’t that awesome he sent a pair for Darci as well.
Darci is our youngest and this just made this old man feel so soft inside to see folks like Ken do such a generous kind thing for our girls.
Darci was born without any thumbs and in her 8 years of life she has had a hole in her heart sealed,then the first finger on her left hand moved to where a thumb would be and just last year some hardware put in her right arm to help straighten her right hand due to being turned to a 45 degree angle.
To watch her use her hands to hold these binoculars is amazing and our girls are all gifts from God and we are Blessed beyond measure to be a Mom and Dad and when folks like Ken go and do something like this shows me there are folks that have hearts of gold.
Ken you have earned a “Crown” today for bringing a smile to our girls faces.
God bless you Ken and again Thank you so very much.

I’m very sorry these pictures are sideways everyone.I took them with my I phone and they are on my I pad upright but when I attach them they turned sideways?
I’ll see if I can figure out how to turn them up right ...Again very sorry .

I still have not heard from a few of the winners of drawing #3, PM me, I need some addresses. Check Z Giveaways for winners names

All binos and packaging are thoroughly sanitized before shipping.

It's so much fun seeing smiling kids

Dennnis,
We actually have adopted 3 girls when they were babies just over or almost 1 year old when we adopted them at different times.
Here’s our first one in these pictures below when she could just pull a bow back and a friend had gotten her this pink back quiver back then.Her name is Ande and here is another picture a few years ago with her RKorte recurve Richard gave her .She is 14 going on 15 and we were in our 40’s when the Spirit of Adoption hit our hearts. I’ll be 57 this year and my wife will be 58 and these three girls are gifts from God and we are Blessed to be their parents .
