Saturday we had a garage sale! I can't really believe it either but we did it. I have signed up to participate in the Weekend to End Breast Cancer and have to raise $2000 to walk on July 27. What better way to raise some money we thought than to have a garage sale. Great idea. We had some of our own junk and then some friends donated some of their left over junk from a garage sale they had. So we were pretty well off for things to get rid of. Ian and I were most proud of the sale of our "Ab Chair" - you know to build those ads of steel. I actually sold it for $10!!! Hope the guy has better luck than we did, although it did work great for drying clothes!
Later in the day - we only did the sale until 3:00 - Olivia was finished playing with all the stuff in the garage and ready to get to back yard to play. It was an exhausting day but for a great cause and we did manage to sell some stuff.
Olivia has enjoyed smelling the flowers in the yard and finally noticed the lilacs which smell so sweet!Today Olivia and Ian spent the day together. This morning she decided to try on her new bike helmet and pads!
Then they came to have lunch with mommy at work and see mommy busy making Eggs Benny for the breakfast rush. After work we all went over to have dinner with Andrea, Ricardo and Trystan. Olivia and Trystan played lots together, played with dogs and had dinner - they were so busy. Even the dogs were tired.
Another great summer weekend with friends and fun. Its just such a great time of year.If you are interested in donating to my cause go to the web site www.endcancer.ca and click on Calgary. Search for a participant and type in Felicia Hart. Thanks!
