2016 Big Box Sale Recap

( I "borrowed" this photo from Maggie Generoso's Instagram page-Loved it!!)

Wheeeewwww..........
 The "Black Friday Of Tees" Sale (that really occurred on Saturday! ha) is now over!!! We had 36 full boxes at our big annual sale today. We were once again A-M-A-Z-E-D and thankful to all of those who came and stood in line to stock up.
The first two girls in line said they arrived at 4:50AM!!! I gave them both one of our camo Mr P's logo hats as a thank you. I was grateful it didn't rain this year, but felt bad seeing people all wrapped up in blankets because of the cold. Talk about dedication!!!
  This year, we bought $100 worth of donuts and donut holes and also a bunch of bottled waters for everyone standing in line to enjoy.
A small token of appreciation. Thank you to Kourtney and Ray Lewis for handling the ordering and picking up of this food for us. On a side note..it is amazing how many donut holes you can consume without realizing!!!
 Before we opened the doors, Brent and Robby (my bro in law) went over everything on how to help the traffic flow easier.

We tried our best to keep everyone moving since there were so many people waiting to come in. We also added another checker this year, so we had 3 different people available to check out.  Brent and Robby were the "bouncers"!  This was our view of everyone waiting from inside..
Big thanks to our niece Katie for helping. Some how I didn't get any pics of her, but she is always the biggest help. And of course to Robby- who makes everything so much more fun!  Also, thank you to Allison, Amy, Eva, Kourtney, and Julie for helping us all morning. I can't tell you how thankful I am for these women in our life!!

I know Brent says that I talk way too much and too long to people, but I really do enjoy getting to visit with everyone. I tried to take pics of everyone I saw who wore one of our shirts to the event.
Here was Anne Dumas stocking up! :)

And pretty Allison Fisher who is Teacher of the Year out at OJH!!!
Hey Cliff! Always nice to see you!

And cute Amber in the Krewe of Black Bayou
Its a little hard to see, but here was Keshia in her Butterfly shirt

Here is Kari in the v neck crawfish and her buddy Mandy

And fellow runner, Jan Nelson who wore her Kick Cancer tee that we created to help Scott Caldwell.
And two more runners, Terry (in her special Burpee challenge tee) and Amy in her logo baseball shirt.


We hope everyone found something they loved! We still had a bunch of really good pieces left over.
My goal is to take pics like this one of everything available in a certain size and put lists up of how many of each are left on our Instagram page. Whoever is First to comment that they want something, will get it and have 24 hours to pay a paypal invoice. If it is not paid, we will go to the next person. I hope to have this put up by tomorrow evening (Sunday) at the earliest or Monday evening at the latest. We did this last year and it gave a bunch of our out of town fans a chance to take advantage of the big sale.
  I also need to thank my mom and sister for entertaining the two P's while we were working. My sister Holly always comes up with these cool "projects" for them to do that they always love.
Always comforting to know your  kids are in good hands while you are working. :)Apparently Phoebe ate a lot more than she actually wore  (HA)

We have been working hard on our new spring designs which will first come out at the Monroe Junior League Spring Market at the Monroe, LA Civic Center on March 18, 19, 20. Here is one little sneak peak of a design we like to call "Cowboy Rex"....

Thanks for reading!!
Love,
Lissy

P.S. We also hope to have our Brand Rep Search happening towards the end of March-stay tuned for more info on our social media pages...
