Thanks again to everyone who donated items or money, and all those that bid (winners and losers alike!).

I'm still getting a few final things added up, but we raised over $4500 for Kate!!

I got to see Kate last week and take her the money. She was tired, but I could tell that having this money relieved a lot of stress for her. I'm glad that she'll able to take time off of work without worrying about her paycheck.

Special Thanks to Jennifer and Scott from Skinny Dog that let us hold the auction in their room. It would have been impossible otherwise, and I really appreciate it.
