We just want to thank each and every person that came out to our banquet last night. It was a huge success! In total we had about 130 people come, which completely blew us away! Our Silent auction was pretty amazing. We made some serious cash from it and want to thank everyone who donated items! Thank you so much for your generosity. Our silent auction last night raised us $3525.10 towards our adoption! Huge!!
We wanted to give you the final number overall of what we made from the banquet. Between ticket sales, the silent auction and the generous donations of people we raised.... drumroll please.... $6137.60!!!!
I have been doing a horrible job at keeping the thermometer at the right balance, so today it is taking a GIANT leap all the way up to $9615.41!!! We are nearly one third done our fundraising! Thank you so much for all your love, support and generosity. We are well on our way to getting our baby!
In case you missed it here are a couple pictures from the night, one from the auction, one from our Q & A time that we had. I meant to get more pictures throughout the night, but was quite busy visiting with everyone!
We want to send out a huge thanks to our pastor, Blair who MC'd the evening and did a fantastic job! Thanks to my sister and brother in law, Courtney and Cameron who helped so much in the organizing and running of the event, and also to Kristen who made the center pieces. Thanks to everyone who helped tear everything down and clean up after. We were so blown away!
Thanks for your generosity! We wouldn't be able to do any of this without it! You are all amazing. We love you so much and thank you for all your prayers, love and financial support.
