Got Milk?


Ever wonder what nearly 4,000 boxes of Girl Scout cookies would look like in one spot? Come on over! This morning after 2 large semi trucks and countless troops galore, our first year Girl Scout Brownie troop 228 of 18 beautiful gals got to pick up our cookies and sort them in my garage. Now the fun begins...distribution and money collection...YIKES!

With dedication like a mother bear in protecting her cubs, Baylee had a goal in selling and nothing was going to stop her. In fact, she reached her goal in one day, so as the days increased and she continued to hit the pavement, so did her goals (and to top it off, she's still trying to sell). She is so very proud of her perseverance and so are we. Our once "timid" girl has come out of her shell while approaching strangers to say, "Would you like to buy some Girl Scout Cookies?" And with her charm, she's sold nearly 600 boxes! Amazing!

Baylee's mission continues..she's trying to get donations for cases of GS cookies to send over to U.S. Military in Iraq. So anyone with a heart for soldiers, we've got an idea for you. And for those who know soldiers...let them know cookies are on the way!

Welcome to the blogosphere! So glad to have you on board. Jerry came home with two boxes of cookies yesterday, but, much to my dismay, he didn't buy those delightful chocolate covered peanut butter cookies (not sure what their official name is). All I know is that those are little pieces of heaven. If Baylee was here, I'd buy several boxes from her! Not that I need them...
Love and hugs to the Kempiaks!!!
