In the wave of the COVID-19, we know that everyone's plans are getting tossed upside down, and the United States has just gone into a state of emergency. We had thought about delaying this video until things had begun to settle down, but truthfully, we don't know when that will be. Over on our end we're taking care to wash our hands, keep them off public surfaces, but mostly live our lives just as we had been doing. So, as we do that, we still wanted to share this exciting news with all of you out in MJ Land. Our thoughts and wishes are that everyone is well, and we hope we can bring a little entertainment to your night and hopefully a smile to your face.

We've had some big news we've been keeping to ourselves recently, but it's about to change the course of our future, and we can't keep it in any longer!
We hope you're just as excited about it as we are, and we can't wait to bring you along on the next stage of our lives!

Much love from England!
Jessica, Matt & Georgie
