We ROCKED!

WE'RE DONE!
We finished our Rock a' Thon at
7:00 this morning!

Let me tell you,
I did rock longer than I expected,
but that was NOT easy!!!

We are very very thankful for everyone that
literally sacrificed to stay up all night!
We had our babies sleeping in one office
and my niece in another!
My sister-in-law napped on an air mattress in the
same room as us rockers! 
Our judge, Megan also stayed up
all night (maybe a little cat nap)
even though she didn't rock.

So we did it,
and here are the results!!

Angie: 8 hours
Makayla: 11.5 hours
Chris: 12 hours
Edgar: 12 hours
Alexis: 12 hours

Yup....everyone went all night
BUT ME!

So here are their pledge totals!
This is SUPER EXCITING!!!

Angie: $40
Makayla: $57.50
Chris: $84
Edgar: $180
Lexi: $300!!! 

Total Fixed Pledges: $1,140

TOTAL ALL TOGETHER: 
$1801.50!
 Um, yea.
We are blown away at this total.
We CANNOT say "thank you" enough!!

Most pledges that didn't come from church
came from Facebook.
So I will post individuals' totals on facebook,
please contact me if you need your total and don't see it!
Please remember:
Fulfill your pledges online here
at adopttogether.org/teaglefam/ 
starting SUNDAY Feb. 17th (tomorrow)
no earlier than 5:00 a.m. CA time
in order to have the donations matched with our matching grant.
We have until next Saturday night to fulfill them.

Also remember that our matching grant
will only be matching the first
$1,000 in donations.
So THANK YOU again for helping
us make the most of that opportunity!!!

Our Lord is so faithful.
And as a gift, He has given us faithful
friends and family.
We are ever so grateful
and we can't wait to tell Tobias
how much work and love went into
bringing him home.

We will NEVER forget how people
have reached out to assist us and our new son.
This is truly a picture of the CHURCH.
We are a family!
I really pray that we will be able to
be a part of someone else's adoption
sometime soon.

This is truly a blessing.
Thank you!
