Counting our Blessings

I cannot even begin to describe how blessed we feel following the success of our rummage!  We were blown away by the number of people who donated their clutter.  In fact if we are being honest there was a slight panic that set in the evening before.  Our garage looked like this ...

And our sun room looked like this ...



And because we live in the "Pleasantville" of Southeastern Wisconsin where they make a million rules to discourage rummage sales, we were having the sale at a friend's house.  This meant every single item had to be transported the day/night before the sale.  But with God all things are possible and he made it happen!
The morning before we were as ready as anyone with this much stuff and only 2 hours to prepare could be.

And then people started to arrive and name their price!  We were able to offer some fantastic deals while getting that much closer to our goal of fully funding our adoption.  We have some truly amazing people in our lives.  Thank you hardly seems enough.



Speaking of amazing people I cannot forget to mention the friends who not only made this day possible but also kept me entertained every step of the way!
