2nd yard sale...

Ok we had our 2nd yard sale today... went great... we made around $345, not too bad. We still have a garage full of stuff too, CRAZY!!!

We still haven't heard from USCIS on our approval yet :( So we will not be submitting prior to the date of possible country changes... please pray that no change happens this month but that if they do that they will not keep us from getting him as planned and that it doesn't make the process harder or longer or more expensive!

Thanks

Yard Sale #1 done

Hello everyone! This morning we had our first yard sale. We will be needing to do another one. This past week was just really crazy and we didn't have the ability to get everything as ready as we had hoped and did not advertise much. Some friends who were donating items also got caught up this week with different things and we were running out of room in our garage for things, so we still have that stuff to get from all them to sell. My toddler was also sick all week and needing special attn today. Also, the weather yesterday and today was cold and rainy. We still had the sale, since it was only 10-20% chance today, but of course it rained off and on all morning and it was like 40-50 degrees out!!! It hampered the sale a little, but we still had a decent turn out considering everything... and we made $400!

We still have a garage FULL of stuff and will be getting that other stuff from friends soon as well, so we will be having another sale... Maybe in a couple weeks, otherwise sometime in May or June.

Thanks to all who helped us out, donated to us, or bought things. We are very appreciative!
