Melissa has a new blanket - with pigs on it of course! She is thrilled.
She even got 2 pillows to match.
How did she get so lucky? The Summit School Auction!
Every year we have an amazing fund raiser for the school. Parents and businesses donate and then they buy back (at amazing prices) what they have donated. This year they raised $30,000.00. Great!Well the bidding is fun and usually everything goes for hundreds of dollars. We bid on lots of stuff but never win because a $25 item goes for like $300. So when this blanket came up, I told Mike lets just bid once - the first bid for $100. It has Olivia the pig on it. It will make Melissa feel good that we tried to win a pig blanket for her. Then for sure we will be outbid by one of the parents whose kid made the blanket in his class.
No one bid after us. NOT ONE PERSON. So we got $100 blanket for Melissa!
She is thrilled and feels very loved.
