#2 Pizza Ranch

Oh my word!! Thank you to everyone who came out to Pizza Ranch tonight to help us! We had such a great turn out. It was amazing. I have never had dish pan hands like this before! Totally worth it!!!
Our jobs at Pizza Ranch tonight were to bus table, dishes, keep plates, silverware, and cups stocked. We started tonight at 5:00 and we were running until 8:00!! Our husbands came into to help us out, we couldn't have done it without them. Thank you!! I am pretty sure though that I might get a call from Pizza Ranch asking to come back and do their dishes again :)

Move over Kristi, let me show you how its done!!

Crafting has begun!

Crafting has officially begun for us this evening.  Our wonderful husbands kept the kids while we went to Hobby Lobby and shopped for some amazing craft supplies. Its intriguing what we can come up with when we are together.  Hence lots of $$$ later, we have our supplies and after a day of soccer tomorrow plan to craft our little hearts away.  We are selling our "stuff" at the Farmers Market in Hartford on Sunday from 11-2pm at the Hartford Building Center.  Stop on out if you can!  We will post pics next week of our creations :)  This one was for you grandma Helen.  Love K!

Nice Relaxing Run

So I was so excited to go out for a nice run yesterday and burn some steam off. Well, I wasnt even a mile into the run when grasshoppers starting jumping up all over the place! If you know me you know I HATE grasshoppers! I get into such a panic when I see them.  I am sure the kids practicing for soccer really enjoyed the show that I gave them, hopping around trying to dodge 50 trillion grasshoppers!!!! I finally get out of the worst of it and start jogging along when all of a sudden the wind came up and took my contact with it! Here I am still running down the highway with tears streaming down my face ( i forgot to mention how awful my allergies are right now) praying I dont get hit by a car cause I cant see!! I finally made it home and have now decided to run at the gym until the grasshoppers are gone. UGH!!

Goosebumps!

I just cannot wait to experience this! This looks so amazing!

We got our websites up and working! Yay!!

Loose Change!

I have decided to make a container for all the loose change I find and see how much I can accumulate before our deadline date. As of today I have a whoppin' $8.43!!! Woohoo!!! The kids wanna help and put their piggy bank money in there....how sweet, huh? I told them they can make their own loose change box and try to get enough for a trip to Disneyland, now they are running around the house like lunatics!!! :S But it is so rewarding to hear them all talk about their mommies trying to get money for the Team Challenge :) Makes my heart melt...............

Next Monday we will be at Pizza Ranch having a fundraising night. I will be posting pictures on that. I am really hoping for a good turn out!
