What a fun way to raise money for a school! Back in March I attended what the Gilbert School District calls the Rock Hop! The theme was "A Red Carpet Affair" so everyone was encouraged to dress up as their favorite celebrity. I was lucky enough to run into "Johnny Cash" and "June Carter Cash"! That's really my good friend Tim Miner and his girlfriend. Tim is the carpenter that installed my ceiling fan, as well as my new doors.
I also was priveleged to run into "Sara Palin" and "Lorax". They are really my daughters soccer coaches.
And last, but not least I met some basketball players for the "Wildcats"! In reality, they are my daughters teachers, Mrs. Kautman and Ms. Paustian.
At the end of the night, I had spent more money than I intended but it all goes to the school, so it was well spent.
I suppose I should explain a little about the night. It was basically an auction. There were numerous "gifts" in the silent auction that were VERY tempting, but the highlight of the evening was the live auction! You can see some of the items listed below. Most went for more than the "suggested price". It was a great night!
