Correction: Super Date night on August 1st is at Teed Elementary in Kuna.
Shelly- We are planning on donating much of the money raised at our yard sale Sat to the The Wolfkiel's.
I'm planning a post using the info that was emailed to me by Sharee.
I think it is very much the same as this post. Can I use your pic of the family in the post?
