Garage is the new basement

We are spending the next few days moving everything that is currently in the basement into the garage. We plan to spic n span the basement, re-arrange it, then sort and organize everything that we need to keep. Which isn't much. We have waaaaay too much stuff. The rest will remain in the garage for a garage sale!

I know some of you have recently done garage sales as well--if you have leftover stuff that is still boxed or priced and you would like to get rid of, lug it over or we'll come get it and put it in our garage and add it to our sale. Boxes or bags you've been planning to take to Goodwill or wedding presents you've yet to use, horrendous or horrible birthday or Christmas presents, we'll take anything. Donate it to a good cause.

What is this good cause, you ask? Well, we haven't decided what the money's going towards yet--maybe building materials for a shed? Emergency fund? Gift to church? A cookout with all our friends? Who knows...do you? We are not only taking your "stuff" to sell it, but we're also taking suggestions for a good cause for all the money we'll rake in...

i vote for a cookout with friends... but maybe that's selfish.

we probably have some stuff you can have.

Thanks girls for offering "stuff" for the sale! Do you prefer pick-up or delivery of the garage sale fodder?

I like the cookout idea as well--kabobs?

When is the sale? Joel and I both have a ton of clothes in our attic that you're welcome to take home with you on Friday.

Sarah--I had lofty intentions of doing it this weekend, but we just haven't had time to sort yet. So either next weekend or it'll have to wait until after we get back from Africa.

I'll totally take your tons and tons of boxes from the attic on Friday! That'll round out our sale nicely. Did Heather tell you about the totally sweet outfit she left our sale with last summer?
