Success!

The yard sale was a complete SUCCESS! We were extremely lucky with the weather. When I woke up that morning it felt so much like summer and continued to be perfectly sunny and breezy the entire day until the sale was over. Kerry decorated the porch with balloons and streamers. Erin made homemade chocolate chip cookies. Many people stopped by with their kids and dogs. And we even had a cat visit us! We sold lots of our junk (and other people's junk), pink lemonade, pink cupcakes, cookies, puppy chow, and our team tees. We also received many a donation. All together we raised over $400!!!!
