Fundraisers

We're still in fundraising mode, getting ready to take Maggie to Health in Motion again, for three sessions (12 weeks) if we can raise enough. I've been working and held a couple fundraisers since we returned last fall and am wrapping up in with a couple more in March before we leave in April.

My friend offered to do a Pampered Chef fundraiser so I invited friends and family, a few came to my house where we fixed a meal with PC kitchen utensils and then they buy stuff and a portion goes to Maggie! This was on Thursday, March 12th. We had a lot of fun and even had a little chef in the kitchen with us :).





Then yesterday (Sat 3/28) we held a yard sale fundraiser-- it's the last Saturday in March and I leave in a week. I ended up getting the flu last week, but thanks to  my good friend, Ginny, tons of donated items came in and everything got set up. I took a few pictures of the items to post on Craigslist and Facebook for advertising purposes but didn't get any at the actual sale. Ugh! We were barely done setting up when people started arriving, then I was just too busy and forgot to take pics. My friend Ginny came out to work for a couple hours, my parents came and my aunt Patti and uncle Don. With Daniel and I, there were plenty of eyes and hands for the sale and the kids. It was sunny, but cold! Still, we raised $1200 for Maggie, so it was awesome! Thanks so much to everyone who came out to help, shop and donate items for us to sell. We really appreciate you!!
