Yard Sale Proof

I know we've told you that we've held fundraiser yard sales, but have yet to show actual proof of one...until now!  On October 15th we hosted the FIFTH Jones Ethiopia Adoption Yard Sale at our home, and we are very happy to announce that we made right about $650!!!  This is especially wonderful considering that while we did have some new donations this time around, most of the items we sold were left over from our April, and even Aug 2010 sales!  We had a good amount of stuff and were thankful for lots of traffic and sales.

Knowing we could not do this alone we recruited a few volunteers to help out.  Alisa Stoner has helped with every single one of our yard sales (she is amazing!) and our parents from Houston drove all the way up to help for the weekend!  THANK YOU!!!  We are super grateful since we would not have been able to do this without you three!

And now for official "proof" of the sale...

We had a steady stream of people all day!

Mom shopping helping.  She may or may not have bought back some things she originally donated.
I will neither confirm nor deny...

When these cuties showed up with their mom it just made my day complete!
Thank you again to all that donated and helped- you really did make a difference in helping us get baby steps closer to bringing our son home!
