Another side...

Last night was the Big Brothers, Big Sisters Silent Auction. I think it went very well! I helped Meg out and decorated the night before. So Phil and I bid on a few things, and I actually won 2 items! I think I now know why I am not a gambler. I saw a whole other side of myself come out! So there was this really awesome hand painted plate I bid on. And you know me, I LOVE the artsy things! So when I saw that someone outbid me, man....did I get sassy. So I bid on it again. I then actually proceeded to stay by the table and keep an eye on it. I was like white on rice! No one, I mean no one was placing another bid on my plate. I was already convinced that it was mine. So when the table closed for bidding, I felt so proud. It was an exciting moment for me, sad…but true. (This is why EBay and I have a love/hate relationship.) I guess that maybe I got a little bit too competitive over a plate. But you have to remember the money was going for a good cause :)

The other item we won was a photography session. Phil and I never did engagement photos, and so we are excited to have some professional pictures taken. It will be nice to have some pictures of us. I told Phil that I think the cats should be included too, he laughed, not knowing how serious I actually was. I know, that it probably wont happen, but they are a huge part of our family!

In the end, I think it will be awhile until I attend another auction, because I get too competitive. I don't know why I never realized this before, or maybe I have been, and people are too afraid to tell me about it!

Almost too excited...

Phil and I lookin a little sweaty after some dancin!
