Post Yard Sale High

I have a special post of thanks to make for the amazing duo that put together this yard sale for us.



Rana and Connie - what you guys have done has been the biggest uplift for me personally and for our family. You put your all into this and it meant the world.



And then to the faithful wrecking crew: Mom, Dad, Loren, Marna, Jody, Brent, Greg, Dave, Anne, Joe, Cherryl, Gabbi, Val, Tracey, you all missed soccer games, rushed back from family events, dodged the rain, took home a farmer's tan, negotiated with the best of them and gave us your time, the greatest gift of all.

I came home and got in the floor with the boys to count the loot. How often can you bring home over $2,000 from a yard sale? This was one of those days and it will be put to good use.



Then we came home to be gifted with dinner. Much gratitude to Chuck and Dawn for co-cooking a perfect summer meal and breakfast to boot. You guys put the icing on today's cake.

Coleman was so happy when I got home and wanted to know all about the yard sale. He loved looking at the pictures and was honored. The first thing he asked me was whether this money would help me with my work. My answer was a simple yes.

I have some great pictures and so many words of thanks to post, but it will have to be tomorrow because I'm so whipped. Tune in then for all the behind the scenes work!
