We were treated like celebrities from the minute we walked through the door! We were able to watch Glenda Lewis while filming the news live. She is absolutely beautiful (inside and out).

David is 55 years old and has worked for some of the largest Ad Agencies in the Country. He has created story boards for Vlasic, Chrysler, Chevrolet and many others.

KT Maviglia, Miss Michigan 2014 took her Michigan Mittens with her to visit the Special Olympics in Traverse City last week.

Of course, we were excited to create them and offered them as a Positively exclusive in 2014.
