Well, we finally did it. We are down to having only one restaurant, and it's right here in Olympia. Our story with the Izzy's Franchise Systems is long....but the quick version is that we bought into the chain while we were engaged (we both had worked for the company before we met). The store was in Bellingham and we had a business partner. VERY quickly, we bought a second store in Everett, WA. Got married a few weeks later, had a baby about 11 months later. Then we purchased another store in Olympia....and had another baby. Then after a few years, we split with our business partner, got rid of the Bellingham location.....and had another baby. Now we just sold our Everett location as of July 31st, and NO, we are not having any more babies!We have wanted to be down to one store for quite awhile. We love our Oly store, our staff and it's very close to home. So now we can pour all our love, talents and passion into one location.....and maybe venture out to other endevours someday?????
