Garage Sale

Mountain's Edge is having a community garage sale Saturday October 3, 2009. We will be participating in it. So far we have: TONS of baby girl clothes (sz. 0 months - 4T), women's clothes (mainly S - L), men's clothes (pants & shorts size 34 and M & L shirts), a girls bike, a chair, barstools, TOYS, crock pot, bed sheets, an animal cage, picture frames, books and MORE! Please let me know if you have anything you would like to donate to us so I can come and pick it up! Or come and visit us during the sale! I do realize this is during General Conference, but Mike and I are going to record it and watch it later (and I know many of you do the same)!
We're also going to be making things (bath salts, hot/cold rice bags, baby blankets, toddler bags and stuffed animals) and selling them at Reedom Elementary Schools Arts & Crafts Festival on November 14. Come on down and get your Christmas presents early!

Fundraising for a cause

Michael and I recently found out that there is a next-to-nothing chance of ever getting pregnant. So after 2 1/2 years of trying, we can now move on and try to adopt! As some of you know, adoption costs a lot of money so we are going to try to raise money! I have been thinking about doing a garage/arts & crafts sale. Since we have the only house on our street, I thought it would be fun to set up like an arts & crafts fair on our street. The only problem: I'm not super crafty. I am going to hopefully make some stuffed animals and bath supplies, but I'm wondering if anyone out there would like to help us out and sell their stuff and donate to our adoption cause. I'm hoping to do the sale sometime in November or December. Please let me know if you're interested in donating household items, crafty items or your time for this. We appreciate all your love and support in our endeavors!

Movin on up

Michael and I have decided to join the real world and get cable TV and internet. I know this sounds like a joke as most of you know we have never had any of these since we've been married (almost 5 years). I'd like to thank the Sparti's for letting us "use" their internet. We appreciated it! Now whenever someone stays at our house, they will not go into TV withdrawals...
