From the Post Office to Post Haus: How Our Family’s Story in Boerne Began
When we first moved to Boerne, I was a mom with two little ones—a one-year-old and a newborn—just trying to figure out life with babies. Joe had gotten a job at the Post Office here in town, and honestly, if it hadn’t been for that, who knows if we ever would have moved this way.
For us, time together has always been important. Having Joe close to home made a huge difference for me during those early days of motherhood. It meant I wasn’t doing it all on my own, and he could be nearby when I needed the extra support (which, let’s be real, with a toddler and a newborn was often! lol).
Fast Forward…
As the years went by, Boerne became more than just the place where Joe worked—it became our home. We fell in love with the community, the people, and the slower pace of life compared to bigger cities. Somewhere along the way, we started dreaming about doing something of our own here.
Joe’s time at the Post Office gave him experience with shipping and customer service, but it also gave us a vision: we could build a business that not only helped people get their packages out but also served the community in a personal way. We started looking at business opportunities, and with a lot of prayer (and not a lot of savings), we decided to take a leap of faith.
The Birth of Boerne Post Haus
That leap turned into Boerne Post Haus. From day one, it’s been a family business in every sense of the word. Our kids have grown up running around the store, helping pack boxes, and learning what it means to work hard and serve others.
We don’t just see shipping as logistics—it’s connection. Every package tells a story, and we love being part of those stories. Whether it’s a gift going out to a loved one, a small business shipping their products, or a neighbor printing something important, it feels good to know we get to help.
Our Heart for This Town
The Post Office may have brought us to Boerne, but it’s the community that has kept us here. We’re so thankful for the people who have supported our little shop, cheered us on, and chosen to do business with us.
Looking back, it’s wild to think that a job at the Post Office is what first planted us here. Now, years later, we get to run our own business in the same town we love and raise our kids surrounded by this community.
And honestly? We wouldn’t have it any other way.
