Today I am feeling so blessed. As Michelle and I were thumbing threw our completed orders last night the overwelming feeling of gratitude came upon me. So many things have happened in the past month. We have completed our first month operating as E&S embroidery and I will be honest I was extremely sceptical at first. Michelle and I have been friends for 12 years and they always say "never go into business with your friends". However, the past month has been so amazing. I could not have asked for a better partner. I feel like we balance each other out and are there to cheer each other on when the other is down. If anything I feel like this has made our friendship STRONGER! We have also celebrated Regan's first birthday. I remember the journey Michelle and Nathan took when trying to get pregnant. So much heartache but to see that sweet baby smile makes the journey so worth it for me and I know it is for them as well. Reygan is such a special light in my life. When the day gets long and I feel like there is no way for me to go and embroider for 4 hours after being at work for 8+ hours, I walk in Michelle's house and see that face and it reminds me why we decided to embark on this journey. We also celebrated my 26th birthday. I never imagined myself being 26! I spent the day surrounded by my wonderful husband who is the support system to my life, my family that means the world to me, and my amazing friends. As I sat at dinner with my friends I found myself thinking about how amazing our friendships are. We have all, for the most part, been friends since high school and have been blessed to share some amazing memories together. We have had high school graduation, college graduation, 3 marriages, with one more on the way, and 2 babies, with no more on the way, don't get excited and a million laughs in between! These women fill a place in my heart that can never be replaced! I know this is a strange post for our business site but I wanted all our customers to know how grateful I am to you and to so you can get to know me a little better. Without you there would be no E & S Embroidery and without you our dream would not be alive. SO THANK YOU FROM THE BOTTOM OF MY HEART!

To know that you and Michelle are doing this for all the right reasons - families and friends - and with the passion that you have for all things embroidered makes my heart smile! I was so excited to stumble across your business because I love personalized things and to know I can help to support a friend (and her friend too) makes it that much easier to make the purchase!!! PS - thanks for Eden's first birthday ensemble, I can't wait for her to get to wear it!
