Website UPdate for May 20

May 20, 2008 · 1 Comment

Hi, Everybody!

The new website is up!  A HUGE Thank You to Christy and Kim at Black Crow Designs for all of their hard work on the new site.  As usual, they went above and beyond to meet our needs, and we can’t begin to thank them enough for their help.

Most of the links in the blog will need to be updates, so please don’t be discouraged if they link to a rather blank page on the website.  Feel free to move around on the site.  Most of the items can be found by entering a search in the search box or choosing a category from the drop down menu.
