A New Season, A New Location

Happy Friday, Friends!  I hope this blog finds you well.   Billy and I are remembering that five years ago today, we were holding our precious Addie for the first time.  We had no idea then all that was ahead- the joy, the heartbreak, the redemption.  The memories of that day are still vivid in my mind, and there is a fresh sting each year on this day as I recall how my heart leapt when I saw her being carried up the steps of the transition home for the first time… of how that sweet girl grabbed ahold of my hair and giggled the sweetest giggle I’d ever heard, all the while gripping my heart until I was sure it would burst.  I ache for her in the very depths of my being, and YET… His will be done.  And wow, does His will- His plan- look very different than mine did five years ago.  I could not even begin to imagine how He would use our love, our pain, our passion- our Addie- to impact hundreds of lives around the world.  He is so good and so kind to turn our ashes into something of beauty.

As you know, we closed the doors to Addie’s Good(s) a couple of months ago and announced we would be moving to a new location.  Well, after much prayer and seeking of the Lord’s will for the store, we have found what we believe will be a fantastic place for Addie’s Good(s)!!! 

Drumroll, please!.......

Coming early Spring—

Addie’s Good(s) of Crestwood!!!

We will be right next door to Gustavo’s Mexican Grill (6402 Westwind Way).  We hate to say good-bye to our beloved LaGrange, but we feel very strongly that the Lord provided this new spot for this next chapter of Addie’s, and we truly hope you, our faithful customers and partners, will follow us to Crestwood!

Soooooo, you may be thinking (I sincerely hope you’re thinking) WHAT ABOUT CHRISTMAS SHOPPING???? No worries, we’ve got you covered!! We are busy ordering goods right now and planning two, possibly three events for you to come do your holiday shopping with a purpose.  These events will be ticketed, with a limited number available.  The cost of a ticket will be just $6, and 100% of that money will go to an amazing organization, to be announced. J Once one night sells out, we will offer another night, and so on.  Each event will be a fun evening of fellowship, snacking (Scarlett’s Bakery!!!), and shopping, to make a difference in the lives of men and women around the U.S. and the world.  Dates and other info will be announced later this week, and tickets will go on sale Friday, October 27.  Check your email, Facebook, and Instagram for important updates! 

We are so excited about what the Lord has in store for this little project and we can’t wait to share more with you as everything falls into place! 

"Now to Him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us, to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, for ever and ever!" 

Ephesians 3:20-21

Have a blessed weekend!!!
