It's Yard sale day





Today was the big Day, we woke up bright and early we had great help setting up the donations. I would like to Thank Marilee's Mom and Dad and sister for coming out and helping us set up and make sure we felt good about running it.Plus I want to thank Brent and Lori for all the donations they gathered up and coming out to sell and collect money. Thank you Marilee and Pete and her cute kids for donating items and for collecting money and being great seller's. Plus Thank you Chareyl for the kids clothes you donated they helped us alot. We did great we where able to get $1204.00. we had lots of people ask us about the orphanage and the radio station said we would be able to come back next year. so I think the day turned out very well. I had a great time visiting with everyone and talk about our kids in Haiti and how we all learned about the good old Blink the kids like to do. By the way we think they should Include this in your travel packets.(lol) well we are getting closer to our trip I loved how the yard sale kept me busy and the month of may flew by and now after the holiday I can start to pack the rice and the kids items we are taking with us and get them to way the right weight for the airlines. see you guys soon at the airport either in salt lake or in Florida on our way to Haiti!
