Giving Back

It is nice to teach our children about giving to the less fortunate, especially at this time of year. At Peekaboo Beans it is important to us to give back throughout the year, but this Christmas, with the help of our manufacturing partner and Wind and Tide Preschool, we facilitated the donation of 500 long sleeve shirts to the Union Gospel Mission (Hope for the hungry, hurting and homeless). It gives us a warm and wonderful feeling to beable to help in the small bits we can. We are in the process of facilitating another 500 long sleeve shirts to the Front Room. If you have a special charity that you are involved with, please let us know and if the opportunity arises we hope we can help.

Peekaboo Power Stretch

Caden is doing his morning power stretches in his Peekaboo comfies! Our christmas sets have flown off the shelves and have been featured already in West Coast Families, Global TV Noon News, eTalk Daily and will be featured in the Province next Tuesday!

Lounging Around

I met a lovely hip mom at the Sweetheart Ball last year and how lucky for me she has become a dear friend AND a huge Peekaboo Beans supporter. Here are her lovely girls, lounging around in their Peekaboo Beans. Olivia has now been featured in two of our photoshoots and lucky for us doesn't like to take them off! My favorite story of Nicky's is her nephew loves Peekaboo Beans so much, prior to him owning his own, he would come over and wear Libby Lou's pink outfits around the house because he just loved them so much. Happily for him now, he has his own boy Peekaboo Beans digs and Olvia doesn't have to fight him for it. Thanks for sharing the stories! They always warm my heart!!

The Business Excellence Awards

Peekaboo Beans was excited to learn we were nominated as Best New Business of the Year by the Surrey Board of Trade. From all the businesses throughout Surrey we made the final 10 nominees and from that final 10 we were selected as one of the top 3. We were featured on a 30 second video clip of our business at the banquet with over 450 of the top business people in our area viewing, and received some good press from it. So needless to say, it was a very exciting night for our growing little company. There is good news and bad news, the bad news is we didn't win, but the good news is I didn't have to speak in front of 450 people, to accept the award! However, as the saying goes, we were just happy to be nominated!! Maybe next year. During the night we did receive tons of positive praise and I know there were lots of supporters voting for us, so for that thank you to everyone who have continued to support us as we grow. Andhra and I are here accepting our plaque and our lovely gift basket (the consolation prize) :), no matter what, we still got to wear the dress!! Congrats to the other nominees and winners too.

How Exciting

I was talking to Denise my trusted Graphic Designer, confidant and "business therapist" as I like to call her, not to mention - dear friend - ! I mentioned to her that I really needed to start a blog as so much happens everyday with the business, and I want to keep connected with everyone in the community - she said well then DO IT - now! So as I was chatting with her, I did and it took me all of 5 minutes! So here it is my very first blog. So after a very hectic day ahead of me, I shall fill you in on all the happenings of Peekaboo Beans! Stay tuned.....
Oh and Thanks Denise!!!
