Here are some new Dad's Desks and composites we designed last month!  The four images in the Dad's Desk was difficult to pull together given the small outside dimensions of 4x10 inches.  I really wanted to keep it ultra simple and often that is the hardest thing to do.  Let me know what you think!

Here is what happens when we make it rain in the sunshine.  Isn't she beautiful!

This morning at our BNI meeting our newest member gave us his three minute launch, telling a little about himself and his business.

Mike was a police officer, working for the sherrif's department for many years.  Early in his career he had a life changing expierence during a domestic violence call with shots fired.  It changed his life.  Out of that he came up with a personal motto, 'I CAN HELP".  It is an acronym.

Integrity...always operate with a ton of this!

Attitude...make sure yours is positive.

Nobility...behave like nobility, do something nobel.
