Calm after the storm

This week is the start of our calm after the storm. Sunday we participated in the Brazos Valley Bridal Show here at Reed Arena (on campus of Texas A&M). We had a booth for Studio One and a booth for Avalon. The booths were right next to each other so that helped. We got there about 7:30 am and were finished setting up around 10:30 or so. I think that is a record for us. It tends to take us a while. This year one of our employees was able to help so that is what made the difference. We set up one of our gazebos in the Avalon booth and had lots of white drapey fabric and flowers and plants--felt kind of like the outdoors.

We had a great response to the Avalon booth and lots of questions. I wasn't at the Studio booth for any length of time so I am not sure how they did but it seemed to be busy over there sometimes. The show seemed a little slow compared to previous years. But we still had a lot of positive responses to Avalon and a few calls and emails afterwards so hopefully that trend continues this week.

We are getting ready for our trip to Big Bend next week. Keep my parents in your prayers....my Mom came down with the flu last week and just got over it and it seems my Dad has it now. They are going with us to Big Bend and will need to get their strength back up. I am sure they will be feeling better quickly.

We are looking forward to getting away from everything for a while. Our room does not have a TV, internet or a phone and I am not sure if our cell phones will work or not. So we really may be out in the middle of no where. Sounds really good right now.

I hope you have a great day!! Keep in touch!
