NEW RELEASE

We would like to introduce our NEW Cottonwood House Logo

Yes, it does look at lot like our Old One! Since it is our 25th Anniversary we decided to Change it up a bit to Better Reflect

Who We Are.

*The House Appliqué is presented exactly the way the Cottonwood House looked when I was growing up.

*It is surrounded by Cottonwood Trees which my Grandmother watered by carrying buckets of water from the irrigation ditches to each tree when she was a small girl. We have only two in our appliqué but there were actually 100 trees transplanted to the property from a nearby river bed.

*My Grandmother had an Amazing Garden...thus the Folky Flowers.

*The Pumpkins and Acorns reflect our love here at the Cottonwood House for the Harvest Season. (We named our youngest daughter Autumn!)

As we created the Foundation of the Cottonwood House, we added the things that Hold Us Up and Keep Us Steady and Strong.

*The Sheep represent our Forefathers who raised Sheep here at the Cottonwood House for Generations.

*We added the Humble Bees to represent our Pioneer Ancestors who traveled West pushing Handcarts. We are and Cherish the Mormon Faith. The Bees hold a special place in heart as they are a symbol of Industry and Service. We try as a Family to always be of Service to others.

*The Single Heart is for our Sweet Daughter Emily who was killed in a car accident as a Young Woman. She loved to stitch and be involved in our family business. Our hearts are broken but we look to forward to when we will be with her again.

*Finally the Key...We are so grateful to all those who went before us and continue to walk with us. We want to pass down this Legacy of Goode and Kindness to our Children so they too will be Keepers of the Olde.
