| This room was the silent auction room. You can see all the bid sheets on the tables. |
We were high bidders on quite a few items; no high dollar ones particularly, but they all added up to a pretty sum. We walked out with
- Schlitterbahn tickets,
- ice skating tickets,
- car washes,
- Austin Toros basketball tickets,
- some jewelry,
- each of the kids are signed up for their grade level parties -- a foam party for Alex, a Fancy Nancy party for Campbell and a swim party for Conleigh.
- Peter also bought the Spicewood tradition which is a cake from a local bakery. The tradition is to get the bidding going on the cake and then once the high bidder wins, they give the cake back and auction it again. Basically, it is a donation to the school. He has watched that the last couple of years and really wanted to be a purchaser this year.

Other high end items were a Yeti cooler along with 4 concert tickets to Luckenbach, a fab Austin symphony package that includes Ruth's Chris dinner certificate and Dom Perignon champagne, a yacht with food & wine. There were six opportunities to bid on having a dinner made and brought to your house. Our school has such diversity that you could bid on an Indian meal, chinese, steak, italian. We won the Italian meal for six....just need to plan for it.
After the auction, we went over to some friends house and let loose. These are the awesome ladies on the solicitation committee, Kirsti, Stephanie, Sandy our unstoppable leader and me.
