260. The beauty of people working together. This weekend I got to see how beautiful it can be when people work together for a greater cause. There was a large garage sale benefit for a child at our elementary school with cancer. They had to turn away donations for lack of room - and made enough money that it was definitely worth it. Then we also had a primary activity. Everyone pulled together to produce an activity that seemed to stick with the kids. This is what happens when people work together for a greater cause.
261. A quiet couple of days. This weekend was BUSY. Friday and Saturday we had the garage sale, primary activity, a friend who had a baby, shopping for fourth year camp and grocery shopping. Mr. C trimmed the bushes, thinned out the daisies (thinning turned into clear-cutting - they're gone.), cooked dinner - including potato salad, mowed a yard or two, came to a primary activity, and I'm sure a few other things I've missed. So Monday, we did nothing. Dropped the oldest off for camp, went to swim team, and were done for the day. Cleaning was all we did. We needed it!
