These are a Few of My Favorite Themes

We’re excited to welcome our first guest blogger, Tamara from Three M Parties!

A few days ago, I was having a conversation with my six-year old son – he’s the youngest of my three children and definitely the most outspoken. He asked me if I loved him. My answer was an emphatic “yes!” He then asked if I loved his siblings, naming each of them. Once again, my answer was “yes.” That sounds like a sweet little conversation most moms have with their kids occasionally, right? It didn’t end there. He then said, “But you love me the most, right?” How does one even answer that? I told him that I love all of them equally. He didn’t want to hear that. He wanted to know who I love the most – and he wanted a name!  Continue Reading →

Merchant Spotlight – The Reptile Zoo

reptil.zoo Nestled along the verdantly green Highway 2 that leads to Stevens Pass and points eastward is one of Washington’s most unique roadside stops - The Reptile Zoo. Home to the famous Reptile Man, this Northwest gem has been introducing folks to the slitheriest, most poisonous, creepiest, crawliest critters around since 1996.

Scott Petersen (aka: the Reptile Man) founded the Reptile Zoo with the hope of encouraging others to appreciate the beauty and mystery of the reptile world. As a former high school biology teacher, Scott is in a unique position to educate the throngs of people who come in to see his scaled friends every day. He’s been featured on the Disney Channel and PBS as well as performing for over 800 schools, festivals, corporate parties and many other events.

alligatorWhen you visit the Reptile Zoo you can expect to see the largest collection of reptiles in the Pacific Northwest including turtles, alligators, lizards and many types of snakes including some venomous species such as cobras and rattlesnakes. You’ll also get the chance to check out a variety of tarantulas, some hissing cockroaches, and an incredible two-headed turtle!

Now that they’ve partnered with PlaceFull, you can buy your admission right online and sail through the lines at the Reptile Zoo. No more waiting for the albino alligator or black mamba! Hooray!

PlaceFull’s Office Dogs, Continued

photoWith the welcoming of new employees (Hi Ben and Alex!) we also get to welcome a new office dog!

Oakley (like the sunglasses) is a three year-old black lab who is just about as sweet as can be. He’s big, sturdy, calm, easy-going, and an absolute love. He doesn’t even mind when he gets dressed up in a PlaceFull t-shirt!

okaleyHis person is Ben, one of our new sales people, and together they like to ride bikes and run. Though Ben’s the one who rides…. When Oakley’s not snoozing under our desks or charming the ladies he looks longingly at our granola bars.

If there’s one thing we love here in the PlaceFull office, aside from Thirsty Thursday that is, it’s having a pooch or two in the office. There’s something so soothing about having a sleeping dog under your feet or the click of nails on the hardwood floors as Oakley runs to greet the door with a big ol’ doggie smile. Dogs are good for the soul and good for productivity.

Oakley, we’re so glad to have you!

Oh, and Ben’s nice too.
