Flying Cloud Family

From left to right, (me) Rocky, (my dad) Jack, (mom) Judy, and my (brother) Jeremy. This picture was taken at the original Flying Cloud Gift Shoppe and Tree Farm in Astoria Oregon (circa 2003). In the background was the horse stalls my parents converted into a gift shop. During the Christmas season they would open daily, giving away hot apple cider while the locals came to shop in our store. This was a local tradition, to come and find their Christmas Wreath and tree. Flying Cloud has been a family tradition, run by Jack and Judy from the beginning for almost 20 years.
As we go into 2009, we look forward to carrying the tradition of quality and personal service!

Wow, it's so much fun having a such a cool business! I like the shopping part alot, we just purchased the whole Suzy Toronto line for Flying Cloud Gifts. Her art work and funny sayings are great! One of my favorites is "Never Underestamate The Power Of A Hissy Fit" Her canvas art work is just fun, bright and cheery. Suzy Toronto has such a cool style, none of her painting of women have faces! Reason for this is her son who they adopted would ask Suzy what his real Mom looked like, well Suzy would draw a picture of her with bring cloths and great hair and say ''I don't know what she looks like but this is how I imagine her. I love her figurines. "She who brings joy" is just awesome. Maybe Rocky will post a picture of one them, if not you can check them out on our site, under Suzy Toronto. Here's a link www.flyingcloudgifts.com
Anyway I love this family picture of us at home.

Ok! We have been getting emails about our fresh Oregon Christmas Wreaths! And I would like to say you can sign up for our bi-monthly newsletter on our site. http://www.flyingcloudgifts.com If you do this we will email you to let you know when the Christmas wreaths are ready to ship in 2009, also we can get your gift cards ready for you, because we do hand write them all. We really like it when our larger companies order early, we really appreciate PHF files or faxes with the names on them, hand writen Christmas Wreath lists can be pretty trouble some because sometimes we have to call the client to get correct spellings and address's. So if you think about get your Christmas Wreath names to us early. We don't ask you pay early just give us the names! We really enjoy getting comments back from our clients about the thank you's they get from friends, family and employees, and clients. It's pretty cool when they pass these off to us! We will post some for you.
