GARAGE SALE!

Melissa, Peggy, Kristina, A'linda, and Jena have been sorting through their belongings for some time now and have been talking about having a garage sale.

On August 21st & 22nd they finally had their garage sale. They all decided whatever was earned over that weekend would be given to us to help fund our adoption. They hung signs throughout the area advertising the garage sale and what the money would be used for. They had great weather and ended up with a good turn out as well.

One gentleman looked around and couldn't find anything he could use, but still placed a donation in the jar. Another saw the signs and simple got out of his car and gave a donation.

When all was said and done they raised $512 for our little girl.

Thanks for all the hard work and support ladies it is much appreciated.
