We're giving this one away to a lucky winner this Saturday



From New York Times bestselling author of The Wednesday Letters comes the completion of one family's journey to survive their past and forge their own future. With no more secrets ...

When Noah Cooper bumps into Rachel, it s love at first sight at least for Noah. Rachel isn't so sure. But Noah's charm pays off, and he introduces his bride-to-be to a special Cooper family tradition the wedding letters. Family and friends of the happy couple are invited to send letters of advice on love, life, and happiness.

However, when a dark secret from Rachel's past surfaces, will Noah, and his parents, Malcolm and Rain, be able to help save the wedding from disaster? And what about the scrapbook of wedding letters that have already been gathered? Could a single letter really provide the answer that will bring Rachel back?

Set against the backdrop of Virginia's Shenandoah Valley, The Wedding Letters will remind you that sometimes, no matter the secrets of years past, two hearts can still be one. And by the final page, you might just want to create your own book of wedding letters for someone you love.

Christmas Carols with David Archuleta and the Mormon Tabernacle Choir

I realize it's early and I won't be pulling out the Christmas Tree just yet, but I'll let you know that we do have this Christmas bluray at the store and DVD's coming in. I'm a big fan and last year the CD was available, but this year the DVD is out for Christmas. Ya might just have to wrestle it out of Devyn's hand, but I know where she can get another one. ;)

17 Miracles is here!!

Watch the trailer to 17 Miracles......then come on in and purchase your copy--TODAY 


This is definitely a movie you are going to want to own and watch over and over.  We watched it last night.  My kids and Greg have relatives in both Martin and Willie Companies and this is particularly meaningful to them as I'm sure it is to so many of you who have pioneer heritage. 

This movie will be one of the "must haves" for Christmas.  We will be having a drawing for one free copy during our Grand Opening 4--8 October 2011.  For every $25.00 you spend you will receive one entry into the drawing.  If you have a full Rewards Card from For Heaven's Sake, bring it into the store before 8 October 2011 for one entry to win.

Getting everything ready


Packing things up from the store in Alamosa.

Everyone pitched in.

                                              Even Dallyn was there for "moral support."


                                                          A picture says a thousand words.

The transformation begins...

Austin and Conner pitchin' in.
                                                                                                                     JoAnna still smilin'.


Lane working on the bathroom

                 Jamie and Kory painting it up


Ryan getting the lines straight and keepin' it off the wood

                                                                                Even Austin was helpin' out with the tough spots.


Notice the food and water.  Gotta keep the crew happy.

Got a little service help from the missionaries.
                                                                               Jamie reaching the tough spots.


The painting is finished and the moving in begins.

What to do with everything...


Takin' shape.

                                                                                        Entertaining the younger troops.


                                     Papa Williams replaced the "facilities"  Taking a break.

Dallyn helped with some touch ups...with a little help from Uncle Ryan.











Wondering if we are ever going to go home and come back to a store, without boxes everywhere.
Makin' headway...









Beginning to see the floor again







Got the "thumbs up" from Austin.



The Finished Product.


Opening Day!!

I couldn't have done this without the help from everyone of my family from grandparents to grandkids. This has been something Greg and I have wanted to do for some time and it is finally taking place. We are planning our Grand Opening for the first week in October with door prizes and drawings. Please watch and come in.
