"Mothers and daughters together are a powerful force to be reckoned with."

A One-Stop Family Adventure
Built on Love, Fueled by Purpose
Back in Time, Elise's Niece's Café, and Schoolhouse Play & Café are more than just businesses—they're the heartbeat of a mother and her two daughters who dared to dream together.
What started as individual sparks of passion grew into a shared journey of entrepreneurship, rooted in love, trust, and the unbreakable bond of family. Each space reflects a piece of who they are: a deep appreciation for the past, a love of warm gatherings over good food, and a commitment to creating joyful moments for families and children.
By lifting each other up and blending their unique talents, these three women have built something truly special. Their businesses don’t just complement one another—they thrive together. And in doing so, they’ve grown in ways they never could have imagined.
This is a story of family, of courage, and of what’s possible when women come together with heart, vision, and a whole lot of grit.
Together, they’re not just running businesses—they’re building a legacy.
Back in Time
“Back in Time began as a result of our passion to find, rescue, and repurpose American vintage and unique finds. Every piece has a journey and every journey tells a story. One of the best parts of the process of upcycling our pieces is getting to meet people and learn about each piece. Everybody has a connection to a piece that we can all relate to. We hope our pieces become a part of your own story.”
Elise’s Nieces Cafe
“Elise McCullough, a loving mother, caring sister, inspirational aunt, knowledgeable godmother, & phenomenal baker. Throughout my 24 short years in this world, my Aunt Elise managed to teach me a lifetime of valuable lessons before becoming my guardian angel. After losing her battle to cancer, I decided to leave corporate America to pursue a passion of mine; baking! Kick back and take a break while I bake!”
