    To kick off the second half of the year, God has blessed us with an opportunity to launch an online women’s boutique.  From juggling weddings and other functions to managing our own wedding, we kept busy the first half of the year and now we’re just as busy going into the second half of the year keeping inventory, releasing new products, and making new relationships throughout various US cities in regards to trendy, budget-friendly women’s apparel.

    The Unique Closet really came about over the course of the last 9-10 months of travel.  Everywhere city we visited someone would question Mallary about certain boutique outfits.  Most wanted to know where they could purchase or possibly even peruse such a unique collection of apparel.  So the more and more people questioned, the more the two of us put two and two together to strike out down the path of partnering to operate an online women’s boutique clothing business.  We figured we’ve already committed ourselves to friendship and marriage, so why not a business too!

    So over the course of May and June, we Read more »

    Well, we’re coming down to the final moments…  9 days, 5 hours, 39 minutes and counting… yes, we’re keeping track of every second, minute, hour and day and you can too: Countdown to Mrs. Brown.

    In preparation to make this ‘convenant’ legal in the State’s eyes, we took a little trip to the Travis County Clerk this morning to apply for our marriage license and it was uneventful (not that we were looking for trouble).  As a matter of fact, the only thing that happened was Read more »

    Well, we’re back at it again… The 5th Urban Music Festival.  I had the privilege as well as the other main investors to provide an interview with News 8 Austin to discuss this venture:

    On the wide expanse of Auditorium Shores Thursday, vendors set up for a musically cultural weekend – the Urban Music Festival. Operators walked the grounds, checking the set up. Everything has to be right when music hits the shores.

    It really serves well to have a family environment whereby your kids can come and play as well as enjoy good music,” festival operator Alvin Brown said.

    Where do I begin…? Let’s see…  I believe the last post I had was in regards to Bekah’s arrival, and ironically I’m just now getting back to making a post and she’ll be leaving us shortly.  Man, I’ll miss Bekah, having a 3rd person in the house.  To be honest, it was like she wasn’t there.  Bekah, we all, Brice and Butter included, will miss you.  It’ll be weird not hearing those footsteps above… :)

    What else has happened?  Well, we Read more »

    Okay, so the title is really nothing new under the son.  There is not too much that can really throw me off my game, but Mal sent me a headline today that just made me completely stop working.  I mean, I lost all thoughts and regard for the job / project I was working on.  I sat in awe as I read the headline and viewed the story.

    I couldn’t imagine what Alvin, and in my case today, Charlie, might have done to my backside or better yet, shortened my lease on life and extended the long sleep policy six feet under had Read more »
