And the Winning Bidder is…

“Put your heart into your business and both your business and your heart will grow.”

Words to live by! And work by. :)

I wrote a blog post Saturday about the show Extreme Makeover: Home Edition which is currently filming in my hometown of Medford while they grace a very deserving family with a beautiful new home. My entire family has been fortunate enough to donate their time and energy to the job site. I, unfortunately, couldn’t make the trip down to help out. Instead, thanks to the heads-up from my sister, I donated a photo shoot to a silent auction held by Earth Monkey’s.

The photo shoot started at a $25 bid and ended with a bit of a bidding war. In the end, Ashley Dugall Rejcek won by a very close bid of $116! Congratulations, you worked hard to win that session! I’m am SO excited to set up your shoot! 

I want to thank everyone who participated, and as a Thank-You I’d like to give all the bidders a little something… so if you bid on the session, email me at sarah@yelloweleven.com and I’ll share the love. :)

Watching the community of my little home town come together to better the lives of these fantastic people has been inspiring. This is the first time I’ve ever used my business this way before and I love it. It’s a small thing, I know, but it was a lot of small things put together that have made this wonderful project become a reality. By the way, the auction raised a total of $8200!

On a much sadder note: we lost a Sparrow tonight: Faith. Now is a time to reflect on the light her and Ethan brought to so many lives and to be thankful that their pain has ended. Their legacy and love is still here with us all. Please keep their families in your thoughts. 

Autumn is encroaching! I love that feeling when the air starts to get crisp and you see signs of change ahead. I’ll leave you from this fun photo I shot last year accompanied with one of my favorite quotes.
