I met Jenna and Laura Bush...

The librarians are having a bookfair at Barnes and Noble in the Woodlands this whole week. We signed up for this ages ago, and just last month they called and said that a signing with Jenna and Laura Bush would be occurring during our weekend at the bookstore. Each librarian got 3 wristbands for the engagement, so I took Kim and Chris Gonzales. We got a few pictures and I came home with several books signed. They were both pleasant and something that surprised me is that the First Lady Laura is much prettier than pictures paint her to be. The librarians were so happy that this happened because we were able to get some unexpected profit for the bookfest coming this fall! We take in 10% of everything (books, coffee, gifts,)that is sold if the customer shows them the Spring ISD coupon. We won't know how well we did until next Friday, but we are hoping that this will be our only fundraiser needed for the year.
