A fun night of bidding on fabulous baskets, all bids benefit our Amazing Charter School. We were the winners of Hair Bows by Mrs. Sees (JT's kinder teacher). We bid on them last year but lost at the last minute. This year, HeaBug's hair is growing and cute bows help to cutie-fy the crazy curls up top!
We won a Keurig instant drink machine (you're welcome Rock Steady Shop) that was JT's class's basket. And thanks to Mr. B's thoughtful scouting, I scored a basket full of wrapping paper supplies. I used most of it for our Christmas wrapping! Sweet. Poor JT bid but on a Lego Harry Potter game but lost. He was close to tears because "WE ALL" (as in the rest of us B's) got something but he lost and he lost his $25 of his own money that he bid.
We explained to him that since he didn't have the winning bid he didn't actually have to pay any money! He was comforted somewhat but my sympathy for him went out the window when he asked to stop at Target on the way home so he could pick out something for "equal or lesser value". Little monkey trying to work the system! LOL.
There was live music, free crafts, a girl scout bake sale and a delicious spaghetti dinner. JT was happy to get to hang out with his buddies and Hea Bug made beautiful decorations that made their way on to our Christmas tree at home.
It's turning into a fun annual tradition since this is the second time we've attended! Here is a peek at last year.
