This is the 4th day of packing, loading & unloading since we closed this past Saturday. And though it’ s hard - physically& emotionally, and it’s the hottest week thus far, plus torrential rains & hail - - I’m walking around this beautiful house feeling such gratitude. So very grateful to my daughter & G&G partner, Hannah Jauregui for the beautiful experience of bringing and creating joy & beauty for the past 5 years. And also to my husband Phil Houseal for always being available to help with anything and everything, and supporting us in the most loving way, plus designing great ads, and providing great PR and insight. And many thanks to the rest of my family, Leo Jauregui, Hartley Houseal, Willow Houseal and Garret Todd, for the muscle, love, patience, and laughter while helping whenever asked. - I’m also feeling grateful to our media friends Sondra Best of Fredericksburg Texas, Kimberly Rock & Vine, and Fredericksburg Standard-Radio Post for the beautiful Ads and especially the excitement you have shown while working with us! There are just so many people to thank for their involvement - and of course, our wonderful customers - we thank you for showing and sharing so much love! We are just so fortunate to be loved so very much - and it has never been so apparent as it is now - even though I’m presently all alone, surrounded by boxes and trash, i feel lifted up by all the many awesome memories. Much love and thanks to you all❤️
