where I spent (donated) a little bit of cash and ended up making those three little faces pretty excited.
The chair is part of the class project Anthony's grade did this year. You may remember my post from last year about the
class project for kindergarten if not this will refresh your memory. I had not planned to bid on the project this year, and yet as the live auction began and I realized there were 8 of those adorable chairs, I decided why not? just one problem there is no way I am going to bid at a live auction...can we say stressed? so I searched for my dad, who apparently had a sixth sense I was searching for him and quite simply disappeared, I did find my sister, who reluctantly gave in to my request (whining) and agreed to bid for me. So we sat by Shirley who most likely has not recovered from the madness that is my sister and I attempting to bid at a live auction. Sorry Shirley, you just shouldn't have such a friendly face. I did end up with a chair, as you can see in the picture above, and I am thankful my sister overcame her fear of bidding (her hands were shaking at one point, of course I figured better hers than mine :) and thank you to Shirley for not just slapping us :) and to the kind man writing down all the winning bids, who just happened to be sitting right next to us I appreciate that you did not stand up and say "Hallelujah" when we finally left the area, he did look relieved tho, as he well should have.

I'm none the worse for wear because you sat by me at the auction. I quite welcomed the hilarity! I'll never hide when you and Linette have me in your sights! Shirley
