this ones for the ladies (26 of em anyway)



So its been way too long and i apologize for not blogging this earlier but i have now! i want to tell you a story about 26 amazing girls. now this story starts with two average guys just trying to start a t shirt buisness. me and jason hayashi thought it would be cool to call ourselves eternal t shirts but found that that name was taken so we went with eternity and the sky was the limit! our first idea was to make a shirt for girls! we thought it would be cool and funny to make a shirt that said i (heart) battalion boys. we figured this would be appealing to moms of battalion boys and girls in general really. but we were wrong after selling one to my mom, my sister, elaine martens, julie martens, rachel and a few other girls i was left with 20 shirts. rumour had it that me and jason were giving girls a low blow by making these shirts when really we love and respect them! anyway for most Grand Forks girls it wasnt cool to buy one of these shirts and we were having a hard time selling them. things were looking bad what we thought was going to be a fun shirt soon became a problem! summer camp started up and me and jay were both volunteering up at the Pines Bible Camp! i brought my shirts to see what i could do with the girls outside of Grand Forks who really didnt know what a battalion boy was. Christa was one of the firsts to buy one up at camp and soon after Kara and Heather (francis girl atta boy francis). soon other girls found out i had a bunch of these shirts and thought it was great! i had girls coming up to me all day (which was pretty normal anyway....................ok not really) and they all wanted to purchase their own battalion boy shirt! withen a week or two i had the other 20 sold! and i had more girls after that wanting them which was awesome but too bad becuase i had run out!!! so what i am getting at here is that the girls who first bought the shirts we thank you very much and salute you! but for those from camp who bought the rest of our shirts we thank you very much for keeping "ETERNITY" going. you have given us confindence to keep making shirts and continuing our dream! so I want to give a huge THANK YOU to all 26 girls who bought one of our shirts! you dont know how much it meens to use honestly. its so awesome that we sold em all and we salute you! as of now me and Jay are working on some new ideas and should have a new shirt out for all genders and ages coming out in Nov sometime! we also plan for some other things for the Dec holiday season so if you are thinking about a gift for a loved one (especially you guys) then email us or give me a call we got some sweet stuff under way from Eternity! stay tuned for some more battalion stories about battalion guys and also coming soon a interview with Veteren Ryley Heppner.
