One Year Ago We Became Business Owners

One year ago today we bought a business!!!

It has been a year full of many highs and many lows. There have been lots of frustrations (mostly on my part!!!) and some very happy times.

We have hosted weddings and receptions –

There have been rehearsal dinners, graduation parties, anniversaries, birthday parties, Quinceaneras, holiday parties, business parties, business meetings and many other events.

We have had lots of new experiences like being part of the Bridal Fair –

We joined the local Downtown Business group and have tried to get involved with other small business owners.

My favorite event so far was our Christmas Day open house!!! (sadly I didn’t take many pictures!!!)

I think that Chris and I have learned even more about each other through this experience – I’ve learned that Chris can handle pretty much anything. He stay calm even when I send him pictures like –

leaking pipe - basically a river across the entire entry — leaking pipe – basically a river across the entire entry

water on the floor of the ballroom - leaking from the roof — water on the floor of the ballroom – leaking from the roof

Chris has learned that I don’t handle things like water flooding the wood floors very well!!! Basically I have had lots of high stress and panic over the last year.

But, I think that overall it was a good first year and I’m hoping that our 2nd year is even better!!!

Here’s to year #2 at The Governor’s Row House.

Happy Wednesday!!!
