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.

  2. Are you planning a ladies night "preview" during the priesthood session of general conference? I'd heard of LDS bookstores doing something fun like that to get the sisters out while the brothers are at the meeting.
    I wish we were closer. The store looks like the kind of place where I'd enjoy spending time (and money).
    Hoping the best for you in this enterprise. Let us know when internet sales are in place. ;)
