Thank you so much to Holly for getting the post done for me. I am still knee deep in catching up with emails, orders, prizes and our family struggles. We have quite a few family members in Oklahoma and I can't imagine the devastation and all of the lives lost. How scary! Our family is all safe but our hearts, thoughts and prayers are with all of those affected by the tornado. We are waiting for news on Tim's Dad and his lung cancer - he went to the oncologist yesterday to see if his chemo is working so hopefully we find something out today. We have also been busy building a handicap ramp, and getting the house wheelchair friendly for my Grandma to come and stay with us. The hospital is sending an inspection team over Thursday morning so we have to have everything done by then because she is expected to be released Friday. In between all that, I have been working some 12 hour shifts, and trying to get caught up on business things! I am almost there so I appreciate everyone's patience and understanding as we work through these difficult times! One of these days (hopefully SOON!!!!) we will be getting back to normal business :) I just checked my inbox and I am only about 514 emails behind! I am trying to get through them as quick as I can! Hopefully after this weekend and we get Grandma home and settled I can really get some time to get things handled and emails gone through! Again...thanks so much to the design team ladies and Holly for covering for me while we deal with all of the family things we are going through and for our customers and players for sticking with us! It means more than you know! - Laura
