Today was our Kids helping Kids Bake sale for St. Jude! It was a really busy last few days getting ready for the sale but it was so worth it! This year we did the sale in honor of some kids from the area that are fighting cancer right now! We picked five kids and made it a point to tell the kids who we were raising money for! It really helped them to put a face with the cause! Anyhow, we got up bright and early this morning and heading to the Merc to set up. When we first got there it looked like we had so much stuff and we did but as people started coming we were moving a lot of stuff! We went though 25 pies in no time at all! Pretty amazing! People were giving from their hearts and we are so thankful to all who gave, mailed donations or baked for the sale. We are so blessed to have your love and support!
We packed up shop with less the fifty things left and had a quick lunch and then heading to meet up with the runners to give them our money! They always do such a nice job at making the kids feel good about raising the money and it always brings tears to my eyes when I watch those runners! Running Memphis to Peoria-over 400 miles! It's amazing!
If you didn't have time to get your donation to us and would still like to donate feel free to mail us a check we will still be taking donations :)
