The New Shop

Here are some pictures of the new shop. I could not take pictures of what it looked like before this because I have not been feeling good. My dad and Joshua have spent alot of time the past two days working on the shop for the Grand Opening. The big room is going to be seperated by shelves. The one side is for the CPR (Cell Phone Repair) and the other side is for the violin shop. The back room is going to serve for a rest area, eating area, and play area. There are also two bathrooms. The CPR side of the big room is going to be split off again- the front part is the show room (where we will have our customers enter in) and the back part where the work will be done. On the violin shop side, we are just going to be doing retail (selling product) and rentals. We are very excited about our new shop. Across the way you can see another cell phone store, we are hoping that we can obtain business by people seeing us across the street. Please continue to pray for us as we find out God's will and that He would continually bless the shop.

This picture is outside of the CPR side of the shop. This is the only door leading into the building.
This is the violin side of the shop. The lettering was just put up today. I know the picture is not very good. The top part says Violas, Violins, and Cellos. The bottom picture is of the name of the shop.
These are the signs that are advertising for the shop outside. They were also just put up today. These are the signs that everyone will be able to see.
This is the CPR side of the shop. My dad and Joshua built these walls and they turned out really great. We are very pleased with it.
And no opening would be complete without my mom's famous cookies. You don't believe me, ask the guys who are helping us open up and training.
The guy in the picture is Jason. He works at a shop in Chicago and is here for 4 weeks to train us.
This is the waiting room and the wall inbetween the two show rooms. The next picture is of the violin shop.
This is of the work area for Joshua when he gets into his repair work. He can't wait to get back into his violin work.
This is the work area for the CPR shop and also our office.
We also have an area set up so that the boys and I can come and visit once in awhile. The room is also set up as an eating room and a resting area. As you can see all the toys we have set out for Paul to play with.
This is the temporary sign for the door leading into the cell phone store and the sign that we had made for the outside sidewalk.
Here are some cute pictures of Paul. He was watching the big machine that was putting up our signs.
