Welcome to our humble Mom, Pop, and Baby store! Since we are a small operation we do not meet the thresholds to collect sales tax in any state but our own (Texas). If you are visiting after a conversation with me on Etsy or Ebay, the Item(s) you are looking for will be under the exact same title and the search box in the top center works really well. If you are "cold searching" for something I have found that "Less is more" when using the search box. Example: If you are searching for Size 7 rings, the most effective thing to do is type "sz7" in the search box (with no spaces). If you want size 7.25, 7.5, etc. to come up then don't put it in quotes. The same goes for bracelets, if you are looking for 6"(inside circumference) cuff bracelets just enter " 6" cuff" into the search box. From my experience adding more words leave out important search results and bring unrelated search results to the top. Then you have the ability to sort it high to low price, etc. It's tough organizing an inventory this size. We do a lot of business and we are so grateful for that, but for the most part we are high volume/low profit and still can't seem to get ahead enough to afford help. Thank you so much for taking the time to look at my stuff and considering taking some of it off my hands. Also if you have any questions or suggestions I'd love to hear them... Ian

The pattern was<br>designed to commemorate the 1835-1836 revolution fought against Mexico by Texans<br>for their independence (the word 'Texian' is the British form for Texas.)<br><br>The Texas Revolution (October 2, 1835 – April 21, 1836) was a rebellion of<br>colonists from the United States and Tejanos (Texas Mexicans) in putting up<br>armed resistance to the centralist government of Mexico. While the uprising was<br>part of a larger one, the Mexican Federalist War, that included other provinces<br>opposed to the regime of President Antonio López de Santa Anna, the Mexican<br>government believed the United States had instigated the Texas insurrection with<br>the goal of annexation. The Mexican Congress passed the Tornel Decree, declaring<br>that any foreigners against Mexican troops "will be deemed pirates and dealt<br>with as such, being citizens of no nation presently at war with the Republic and<br>under no recognized flag".

Colonists and Tejanos<br>disagreed on whether the ultimate goal was independence or a return to the<br>Mexican Constitution of 1824. While delegates at the Consultation (provisional<br>government) debated the war's motives, Texians and a flood of volunteers from<br>the United States defeated the small garrisons of Mexican soldiers by<br>mid-December 1835. The Consultation declined to declare independence and<br>installed an interim government, whose in led to political paralysis and a<br>dearth of effective governance in Texas.

In March 1836, a second political convention declared independence<br>and appointed leadership for the new Republic of Texas.<br><br>Determined to avenge Mexico's honor, Santa Anna vowed to personally retake<br>Texas. His Army of Operations entered Texas in mid-February 1836 and found the<br>Texians completely unprepared. Mexican General José de Urrea led a contingent of<br>troops on the Goliad Campaign up the Texas coast, defeating all Texian troops in<br>his path and executing most of those who surrendered.
