Week 30

WOW I am really just starting to POP out. I have been so lucky during my pregnancy. I haven't had morning sickness or any of the terrible symptoms preggers get sometimes. Sometimes I forget that I am pregnant because I feel so normal. I really thought I was going to be just like my sister who was sick throughout both her pregnancies. But Greg told me that I was tougher than her :0 I don't really believe that, but I am so lucky to have had such a wonderful pregnancy.
We have been slacking on taking pregnancy pictures. Our lives have been a bit crazy with the move back home plus looking for jobs and getting our house in order. Here are a few we got throughout our craziness.

Flake Clothing

My husband & I are proud owners of a small business name Flake Clothing. Our mission statement is .for the snow minded. If any of you know my husband, then you understand his amazing passion for Snowboarding. He is by far the most talented, artist and business savvy man I have ever met. I am very lucky to be partners in this venture.
Our logo is a picture Greg took of us on a chairlift. It is our shadow against the snow. It is one of the sweetest logos I have seen. We call it True Love.
Starting a business is not all roses. We have put in many hours and lots of money for the many years. Now we are excited to see the benefits come to us.
Our company really started to flourish when we were living in Girdwood, Alaska. We put some Trucker Hats, Stickers and a few Shirts in a boutique Babes in the Woods. All of a sudden we started seeing our hats all over town. It is the sweetest feeling to see that someone appreciates your passion enough to represent it.
This summer we made our move back to SLC. We spent 6 weeks traveling around to ski resorts and snowboarding shops introducing our company. I am the sales rep so I would go into the shops and drop off our catalog and give out some samples. It was pretty nerve wrenching sometimes. Some of these owners are TOO COOL FOR SCHOOL and I it would get out right nervous and intimidated by them. It was such a great learning experience for me. I was out of my element but managed to kick some butt. We ended up visiting around 40 shops. Plus we made a vacation out of it. We would camp out as much as we could. Some nights we would stay in motels but I preferred camping since we hadn't been in warm weather for 2 years.
Now we are living back in our house in SLC trying to get back in the groove. We are now in Milo Orem (which is one of the biggest Snowboarding stores) If anyone wants to invest in our company we are only asking for $10,000. ;)
