On Saturday, My family and I headed to the Fall Surrogacy Social. The forecast called for rain, but it ended up being a perfect fall day. My agency, International Assisted Reproduction Center (IARC), hosts a biannual surrogacy social. The fall social is held at Eveland Family Farm in Andover, MN.

We were greeted right as we got there from the owner, program coordinators, and fellow surrogates. First, we signed in and received information about the day's festivities.

I was finally able to meet my fabulous program coordinator, Rebecca. She will be my program coordinator for the reminder of my journey. In addition, I spoke with other coordinators from the agency, who raved about my intended parents (IPs) from their first journey. They told me I was so lucky to be blessed with such fabulous IP's!

The day was filled with a ton of family fun activities such as a scavenger hunt, pumpkin decorating, petting zoo, hayride, lunch, and a gift raffle. Our favorite part was the hayride because the twins were laughing and giggling the whole time! Lunch was delicious with a wide variety of food.

The benefit of having a surrogate social is to connect to your agency, fellow surrogates, and to realize how big of an impact surrogacy plays in each one of our lives. It is for support and morale. Also, the owner of the agency, Steve Snyder, esq., uses this time to express his appreciation for all of the surrogates and gives back a small token of thanks. The social is not only a place to get to know other surrogates but to also spend quality time with your family. The fall surrogacy social is just another reason, I am grateful for the agency I choose to work with.

Overall, it was an amazing day with some pretty amazing people!

Thanks for joining our journey,
