We pulled it off once again...
we were closed for 2 days
this year as we felt more time
would leave happy faces
on our faces! The final 5
hours and we were working
like robots...making funny noises, grunting and groaning because our backs and hips had really been put to the test. We completely changed every display and moved every peice of furniture along with bringing in new pieces. Many thanks go out to our niece/daughter Wendy for being such a trooper, she just came in and basically read our minds, removed fall displays outside, planted trees in the urns, brought us coffee, etc., etc., etc. and even worked Friday night! Thank you again Wendy!
Saturday was our big bash to start off the holiday season and it was a smashing success! Our heartfelt thanks go out to our loyal customers as the general consensus was that they would rather support small local business rather than the big box stores! How great is that!
Here are a few pic's that i snapped just prior

So beautiful! I can't wait to see everything in person. My mother-in-law (Mary) and I are planning to stop by on the day after Thanksgiving while I am visiting Yakima!
Everything looks gorgeous girls...best wishes for a prosperous holiday season!! Cindy
Looks wonderful, wish I could come.
I know how it is to work until you get slap-happy :)
Best of Luck!
Your shop is just beautiful; I hope to see it in person someday. The towels you ordered will hopefully be a great fit for your beautiful place.
Wishing you a Happy Thanksgiving

Girls your shop looks amazing. I'm glad you were a huge success.
BTW my name is Claudette also and it seems strange to see it in a blog. I go by Claudie since living in the U.S. people had a hard time saying my name. I'm French Canadian and living in Ontario, Canada now.
Just wanted to say hi & good luck.
