Thank you for answering it. I figure it out.
And I'm so sorry for questioning here.

This question should have been put in the Answers forum, but since it is here, I will answer it.
The two sentences are virtually identical, but the second one ("All of us agreed with your decision.") can be used to emphasize "all." That is, you might want to emphasize that each and every one of us agreed with your decision (in case there was any doubt that everyone agreed). In this case, you would stress the word "all" when you say the sentence out loud.
