First one OVER!!!

YES!!! We got through our first show and we are still alive! Actually it was a great first show. We knew that it would be a lot of work but we had no idea that it would be so rough. We got to the show on Friday around 1:30pm and set up. The wind was blowing like crazy so the tent tried to take off a couple of times. Luckily I like hanging on things so I didnt mind keeping the tent weighted down. The show started at 4:00pm on Friday and we left around 9:30pm. Before leaving we had to tear down everything except the tent and tables, and take it all home with us. Saturday morning we got there at 8:15am to get set up AGAIN and the show started at 10:00am. It was a long day but we made it through. By 5:00pm the money crowd was gone and another type of crowd came out... after an hour of no sales we packed up and headed out.

For the first show, we felt pretty good about how much we sold. We were and are still learning how to sell these products but it is getting easier... Friday I was the top seller by far! However, Saturday Sherry got the hang of it and kicked my butt! Her sister Elizabeth worked for the afternoon too and she did GREAT as well! Next up, Freedom Weekend Aloft in Anderson. Then we start in the mall on June 1st. We are excited about getting into the mall because it will be more stable than the shows.

Well, thats all for now. Catch ya later on...
