Rummage Sale Done!!!!

I forget how tiring the rummage sale is!! I worked the furniture department on my first shift, which wasn't bad, I'll try to do that shift every year! I had to stay and work 2 shifts because I wasn't able to get in any hours pre-sale because of my ABAK meeting, so it made for a long day, I was pooped!!

Ben kept Mallory and made dinner for me last night, he's such a good hubby!

He and Mallory came by the sale for an hour or so after the big rush in the morning so they got to see what we were actually doing. Hopefully we raised a good chunk of money, it all stays in the community for different things we do throughout the year. Typically we raise from $12-$20K, so I guess we will find out the initial estimate at our meeting on Tuesday night.

Friday I met with our local March of Dimes Director and went over a few more things before the Signature Chef Dinner and Fundraiser that we have coming up on Thursday November 18th. We've got some neat auction items and I snagged pictures of these two silent auction items, since I'm such a football fan! If you are interested in bidding on either of these, let me know.

We've got an autographed TN Titans football by Chris Johnson and then a team signed (stamped) ball of the Colts football team. Tons of other great stuff too, if you are interested in going, just let me know!!




Ben headed out to go hunting early Sunday morning since my schedule didn't allow him to go yesterday and again, because of my company function flying him off to Kansas for a company wide Holiday Party next weekend in Kansas, he's going to miss out on opening weekend of gun season.....guess I better be finding some way to make it up to him.....

But, Mallory, Tucker and I had a nice lazy Sunday morning. Even though time fell back an hour, Mallory somehow knew that and slept until 7:45 old time so she was still on her 6:45 schedule. (She normally eats in the am between 6:15 and 6:45) so she stayed on her schedule and I got an extra hour of sleep, which after yesterday's early rise and long day, I was very thankful!!

Here's a few pictures of our lazy morning...we were practicing sitting on the bed...she doesn't quite have that down yet!

Everyone but me napping on the bed....





Here she is trying to sit!




And then just some I put together for 7 Months!





Have a good week everyone! I'm off to Kansas on Thursday am early and Ben's coming in on Saturday....Bean is back with Mom and Dad and Ben's going to just stay down there too until he leaves on Sat morning so he can hunt and see Mallory too. I'm super happy this should be the last travel away from Bean until at least the first of the year!!

Hoping I can find some time to get a few runs in this week, I failed miserably at running last week, but I did get some new running shoes while in Louisville, so maybe there's hope!!

Now I'm planning Thanksgiving at our house...menu is set, I'll be emailing to everyone who will be here soon with your responsibilities!!
