A lot of hard work!

The last few weeks have been a blur! A good blur, but a blur nonetheless. The benefit dinner/silent auction/bake sale is a go, hurray! The event will be held on July 7 from 5-7pm at our church, Concordia Lutheran Church. Thrivent Financial for Lutherans will be matching funds, which is a Godsend and will help tremendously. Many friends and family are coming together to donate their time, auction items and baked goods for an evening of fun. Another exciting donation to report is a HUGE amount of the spaghetti sauce for the dinner will be donated by Chef Dale Beaubien from Restaurant 301, which is located in the Sheraton Hotel in Duluth. We are nervous and excited all at once. I'm sure it will be a huge success!

Next Saturday (June 19) we will be having our garage sale and small bake sale. This was the first of many ideas Nathan and I came up with to raise funds for the California trip. Let's hope it doesn't rain, since the word "garage" in garage sale is misleading...it'll be more like a driveway sale, but that doesn't have the same ring to it. Along with an assortment of items and TONS of baby clothes, I'm hoping to sell some of my world-famous fudge and perhaps some cookies too, depending on how much time I have this week. Wish us luck!
