DRUMROLL PLEASE....

Okay, the winners have finally been drawn by my lovely assistant Malori, but before I announce the winners I have a few things to say.

First, we had a total of 35 contributors, 98 raffle entries, for a total donation of $985.00!

Matt and I want to thank each and every one of you who either made a monetary donation, or a donation of prayer. We are completely in awe of the amount that was raised in only a week. I truly did not think we would come close to our goal, let alone reach in in only a couple of days, then to do on and surpass it. So, from the bottom of our hearts, THANK YOU!

Because of all of you, our paperwork is signed, sealed, and delivered. Our agency is only waiting on a couple of revisions, then it will be ready to go. We should be DTC within the next 2 weeks! Whoooo Hoooo!

And now for what you have all been waiting for..
