White Elephant Parade

In Green Valley there is a local thrift shop run entirely by volunteers called the White Elephant.  Each year the store sponsors a parade and donates 100% of the store's yearly profits to local schools and charities.  The store is only open 3 hours a day and is always packed.  We've had some great luck picking up beautiful furniture pieces for a fraction of the cost and refinishing them.


 Becca, Joey and Carlee watched the parade from the sidelines.


This year Jake and Sara played in the parade for their school's jazz band.  It's always fun to hear them play.  I am really proud at how far both kids have come with their instruments.  Jake has improved tremendously and Sara is just awesome.  She ended up leading out all the numbers with her drum sticks.  Way to go kiddos.
