Heirloom Renovations

The reason we've been SO busy these past few weeks is we are opening our own business!! This was completely unplanned, and unexpected. One day, about 2 weeks before Christmas, Matt came home and said that he was losing his job, after I cried over the fact that we were both about to be unemployed, we pulled our heads out of the sand, and said, ok, what now?!?! And what now led to, Heirloom Renovations.

We were unable to get a bank loan, the economy just hasn't recovered enough for banks to want to loan to startup companies, so we borrowed from my parents and a couple close friends and we've borrowed everything we possibly could and have managed to get this business set to start on January 3.

We are very excited, yet very scared. We don't know if we will be successful, but we know we need to try. It is a granite countertop business, for those that don't know what Matt did/does for a living.

We imagine things will be very tight, tighter then they have been, but we are hoping it leads to better things in the long run. So, look for more posts, and pray for us, we are going to need it!!
