Garage Sale

4 car loads, 4 truck loads, 3 trailer loads. That is how much stuff we had at the garage sale. And actually, we had more than that, because there was stuff that was brought by other people.

Thursday was the first day of pickups. We picked up from 4-6pm. And, Friday we started pick ups at 2pm and finished picking up at 7pm. Thanks to Amie Chikami whom does not have a child going to Guatemala for giving up two hours of her time to help organize items picked up. We were up till midnight setting up and putting out items and then up at 5am cooking breakfast and getting ready for a LLOONNNGGGG day! And, a long day it was. The effort was worth it. We raised over $1800 through the garage sale!! That is fantastic. We had a lot of stuff that went to the Goodwill.

The youth worked hard! They did a good job of being tired and pushing through. Thanks to Gloria and Edgar and Lynn for being there Friday night to help set up!
