Carnival=Success!!

Wow, wow, wow!  What an amazing time we had tonight at our carnival!!!  We had well over 300 people show up, 50ish volunteers, a slew of donated items, and a crazy fun time!  People were handing us money right and left!  It was so uplifting and overwhelming that all these people (many of whom we had never met before) showed up, pulled out their cash, and were happy as can be to help us go rescue our little girl!  I am convinced we have the best friends, neighbors and family of anyone anywhere!  Thank you so much to everyone that helped in any way and for all the people who showed up and gave so generously!  We are completely overwhelmed with love and couldn't be happier.  We would also like to say a special thanks to Picture it Photo Booth, Bopper the Clown, and A Lot of Fun Stuff (dunk tank) for their amazing generosity and donated services!  Also the Buchanan family for their cotton candy, popcorn machine, and amazing help and to the Macauley family for their cotton candy and crazy long hours of service!  Thank you doesn't even express the love and gratitude we feel for all of you.  We will never be able to repay your kindness!  And for the grand total (minus our expenses)...$6,022!!!!!!
