Our night at the first Manson Elementary School auction was a lot of fun. I knew going into it that I would be spending money and I did not disappoint.
This basket was prepared by the students in my fifth grade class. The fleece blanket I sewed together. The fleece blanket was the undoing of my sewing machine. Thankfully, Bonnie was around to help me clean, oil and diagnose the defective part. Fleece and my sewing machine must never meet again.
"I have as many takeoffs as I do landings."
"My license will be coming in the mail really soon."
"I can take two fat people or four skinny people. You decide where you fit in."
The bidding was frantic and ended up at $450. Dale agreed to do two more at that price.
Great confidence builder.
Fun night, expensive night.

Haha I just laughed out loud at dad's jokes..really, they were funny. So when do Blaine and I get our vacation? ;)
Hahaha...That's awesome! I laughed at your dad's jokes too!! How much did they end up raising? I remember when the M&O Levi failed and we held an auction. It was amazing how much support that community can give.
Good job, Mom! I wish I were there so that I could borrow money to bid!
She done got lots of good info here. Just glad she documented my "scull cap" spot when she captured my best side.
I was so sad that this corresponded with our trip; I saw several of the baskets on display at the school, and it looked like they really came together. What did you end up winning?
Dad was funny Mom :) Who is he taking?
Since Ma won't answer you Lindz, Phil Madden and two other folk that obviously don't know me. I ran into someone on the street outside Bear Foods tonight and they said they were sorry they didn't bid on it too. Contrary to your Ma's opinion, I'm not all that well known.
Sounds like you had a good time, and raised some money at the same time. I guess you spent some money too.
Oh, fun! Man I miss all of you guys!
