So I promised an update on our yard sale but we were so busy that I haven't had a chance until now! I thought I would do this post with pictures so that you could kind of get a picture of our endeavor in case you didn't make it down.

| This picture is of the first 4
truck loads we took out of our garage. We ended up doing 11 truckloads
from our garage total. Plus three more trailer loads. We had a lot of
stuff! |
 |
| This is after we brought the rest of the items from our house, plus the first trailer load. This is what Maddie and I showed up to on Tuesday morning. We felt a little overwhelmed :). |
 |
| This is my sweet Maddie after we had gotten the tables set out and some of the items sorted. We felt quite proud of our efforts. I don't know what I would have done without this girl! She is AMAZING!! |
We ended up getting another two trailer loads of items that included more furniture and a piano! We were so very pleased with the outcome of this fundraiser! It was bigger and better than we had hoped! We still have several of the bigger items that we are keeping and are going to put on Craigslist so our total will most likely end up being even more than that!
I want to take the opportunity to thank several people! We had several teens who came and helped out: Brady, Jonathan, Brandon, Ashley, Maddie, and Chandler. We also had the help of Maddie's family, Barbie, Hannah, Caden, and Ryder! My dear friend Melissa came and helped take money and price and sort and all sorts of things for a couple of days. My mother-in-love, Linda, helped manage, sort, move, and encourage! And my mom helped by keeping Ava and Ryan so we could focus on the yard sale! We also had people who baked some yummy treats to sell at the yard sale: Debbie, Corrie, Melissa, and Barbie. We are so thankful for our "village" of people. We are so blessed and so humbled by your generosity.
