Grand Re-opening at the shop

I took my camera to the shop with me yesterday with the intention of getting a few pictures of the shop before the customers came in. Since they were still putting the finishing touches on the shop up until the doors opened, it didn't happen. I got a shot of part of the crowd waiting to come in.

And a shot of Linda, me and Barb while we were waiting to open the doors.

We were so busy all day, but the day went by really fast! I didn't get time to do any shopping, but I did get to look at the items that a Checker's Distributor rep brought. She had a table set up and gave some demonstrations. She had some items to sell and anyone who ordered anything got a 10% discount. I ordered a thimble and a Lazy Girl pattern.

I also had a couple of peeps come by to shop. Cathy stopped, shopped and ran! And Becca came in with her mom and they took their time. We were slow enough that I was able to help them shop. Becca is going to attend a retreat in November with me and Cathy. I'm very excited about that!

I stopped by quickly! I had my grandsons and daughter, so I just cruised through to see the new updates. Everything looks great - and I will be back to actually shop real soon!
