I agree with opening a store in Knoxville!!!!! My go to place is Threadneedle Street in CA. 760-340-0411. Marianne is wonderful. If she doesn't have it, it usually only takes a week to get it. 10% off if you tell her you are EGA or ANG.

Depending on the age of your boys, you might want to look at Kathy Schenkel's mini socks that come in a huge number of designs, most with coordinating stuffed animals. Like this--http://www.needhay.com/catalog.php?Designer=Kathy%20Schenkel

By the way, the link problem may be related to Facebook's new Groups app for mobile devices they rolled out today. I've seen all sorts of odd things happen at NP Nation today.
