There was so much to be done. We scrubbed walls, floors, containers, loaded the fridge and freezer, got toppings organized, set up computers, dvd players, hung shelves and folded t-shirts. We were impressed with how hard our boys worked! They did a great job. We hardly broke for dinner.
me folding shirts...
On Friday we opened at 11am and all went well. Lots of people came in that first day. Annette (John's sister) came in and brought a few of her kids. It was a beautiful day out (actually it was pretty humid... but that is normal there) so we went over to Matt's house and let the kids play in the yard for a while. Tanner hadn't seen his cousins in about 4 or 5 years. So it was fun to connect again. We wish we would have had more time to go to their house and hang out! Next time for sure!

Lauren had fun cheering the boys on! She is so positive with her brothers! I was so impressed.

Dianna and I were ready to open!
Saturday was the official grand opening. The local radio station came out and set up a booth from 2-4. They gave away Taylor Swift tickets every half hour. That brought a lot of people out! It was crazy busy.
Everyone came in and got yogurt and then got in line for tickets. I felt bad for them all because it was very hot and humid out! ugh.
The DJ.
Mitchell and I ran the registers for a while and I am happy to say that the registers all balanced out that night! I was pretty sure that I had goofed a few times. haha.
Check out all the people!
Annette came back for the grand opening and I forgot to get pictures of Kathryn and Meredith... dang!
The 2 guys that made this whole thing happen! They have worked so hard!!! A lot of nights spent on the computer and on the phone.
