well we all made out like bandits today.
the girls sold out of cookies and lemonade.
and i pretty much cleaned up with just a few things left.

i didn’t find anything on my list (mainly because i was enjoying myself so much at our own sale) but i did score a vintage crepe maker as well as a few wooden bead necklaces.

the day was a lot of fun
selling with friends and neighbors
and chatting with people about backyard chickens and rabbits.
we even gave several tours of our garden.

some people were stopping by because they had heard about us from a sign promoting our website for the country living contest.
i was so moved when i went to visit a neighbor’s sale and saw her sign.
thanks chris b.!

i am blown away by the kindness of my friends and family.
so many of them have been spreading the word about the contest.
to be honest my blog has been some what of a secret.
i have not shared it with many people that i know until i was chosen as a finalist.
now it feels like the world knows.
and as much as i am a bit shy about it, it also feels really good.

we are now headed out to dinner with friends to spend some of the money we made today.
