Busy 2009!

What a busy year 2009 has been already! Early in the year Chad and I were going to Kidsville Boutique in Powdersville to try to consign some of Emma's old clothes. As soon as we pulled up I noticed a sign on the door that the boutique was for sale due to health problems of the current owner. Anyone who knows me knows that that would be very intriguing to me! I called my mom and told her and got a somewhat "yeah, ok" response, which I expected. To make a very, very long story short, I contacted the owner that day and have been working on purchasing the business with my mom ever since. It has been a very long process, and it actually seems like it's been about 6 months since it all started, but it looks like we're going to be closing on the business next Friday! I am super excited about the whole thing and am ready for tons of work to get the business to where mom and I want it to be!

The boutique is half children's consignment and half handmade children's clothing that is absolutely beautiful! The handmade clothes are "Kidsville" brand and made only for our boutique! It's definitely not a good time economy-wise for something like this, but it jumped out at me and I figured there's no time like the present! It is going to take a lot of work, but failure is not an option with an almost two year old and baby #2 a month from arriving!

I don't have any pictures to post right now, but hope to have some soon. We are closing the store for a week after the purchase closing and doing lots of remodeling. We will have our "Grand Re-Opening" in mid March and I would love to have as many people there as possible! If you would like an invitation please provide me with your mailing address and email address!

Wish us luck!
