Oh, gush.
I was going to come over here this morning and tell you about 4 new aprons I'll be uploading sometime today - perfect for fall, perfect for gifts, perfect for you!
But instead, you'll have to listen to me gush. I can't help it. Remember this? Well, I happened upon this yesterday!
Wow! I'm so over-the-top happy and overjoyed and humbled!Please read about the other women they are featuring...it is so inspiring, and I'm so honored to be included! The products we pitched are going to be in the November issue of Country Living, which should be out very soon - I'm running to the mailbox everyday this week!
I could go on and on about this and how hard I worked for this, but you don't need to hear that. I think we all work hard, but it's so much easier when it's something you love and believe in, right? When it feels right, you just know it. And when you are doing something you love, even though you fall into bed at the end of the day, totally and completely exhausted, you are happy.
Yay Carrie! I'm so proud of you!

Okay, how COOL is that? How exciting Carrie! I remember when you were preparing your pitch. All of that hard work paid off marvelously. You better get sewing before the holiday sales come pouring in. CONGRATS!
