My Birthday Wish Came True!
When we arrived at the warehouse it was quiet, I guess I had been so used to going into these mattress stores with 5-10 guys ready to pounce and that’s what I was expecting. I was wrong. Ben was there along with some candy for the kids, water and beer for the adults, and his mattresses. We started talking, he got to know us and we got to know more about him and why he opened C*BUS Mattress and then we got down to business. He asked us a lot of questions about how we sleep, if we had any health issues, etc. Then he took us around and showed us all of the different mattresses we can choose from. Ben encouraged us to lay on them as we would at home and to get comfortable.
Fall Favorites | Leed's Farm | 2019
Every single year, my family and I head out to Delaware to visit one of our favorite Fall Farms in the area, Leeds Farm. Like many traditions this one warms my heart, just pulling into Leeds brings back so many memories, like that one time, at 6 months pregnant, I got on the banana bus ride with my daughter or the first hayride my son ever went on. Leeds holds so many wonderful memories for us, and I'm sure they will for you as well.
