Fall starts next week!! My favorite season of the year! In my home, we are gearing up- pruning trees, shrubs, cleaning garden tools, harvesting vegetables, canning and juicing ! I love, love all things homey and this weather brings me to that spirit. Honestly, at times, I wish I were a pioneer woman! and I know what is in your mind- hard work! but, I love working. Work is something I am grateful for. Money earning, thank- you earning, smile and love earning work is what I am for. Because whatever  you get out of working, there is always satisfaction and a sense of completion that nourishes both mind and body.

I am grateful to my Heavenly Father for blessing me with body that is able to do whatever my heart puts in my mind. Small and frail at time it becomes, I am grateful for the opportunities to use my hands and feet. Oh, now I am crying! I better stop. La,la Fall is coming! Out comes our flannel sheets, soft comfy wraps, plaids and don't forget the decor! Yes, you are exactly right, this will lead you to none else but my shop! My friends, I am not selling to you, so don't feel bad if you aren't the shopping kind. I just want to share to you what I am up to these days. I mean, truly, just browse. 
Also,  I will have two magazine features this Fall! Yes! I will share when it comes! See shop here: www.angieandlois.etsy.com

Check the pictures below I took of us yesterday.... And we finished our day with ABBA concert show last night! It was high energy, discoing ( if there is such a word), sweating fun night. I love tribute bands. Oldies but goodies.

I'm Back!!

Oh my, oh my. Where do I start?!! I am so lost. I have not blogged in years!! So many things happened.

First, I must tell you. I opened my Etsy shop in September 2014 !! you should go visit! see here:http://www.etsy.com/shop/AngieandLois. Now that I am back to blogging, I will surely have to adopt a real good balancing act.I am planning on sharing my home projects and also updates of my etsy shop. If you are into sewing, check back from time to time for my freebie tricks and pattern. yay!

Second, after being in etsy barely a year, HGTV magazine contacted me and featured one of my Fall pillow! I know right?! I sure got excited, but here is a picture of it.

 

It was in their October 2015 Fall issue.I will have two magazine features in Fall 2016. I will keep you updated and show you how it went. Right now, I am just so happy I am back!!
