My favorite kind of content from you. Just simple life and projects. Reminds me of when y'all first moved there. It was always fun to see what you were doing and inspired me to get moving. Enjoyed this!!
Just wanted to stop and say how much I love and appreciate your videos. The info you provide, your humor and just genuine mom-ness makes these the best! I love watching your videos most mornings with coffee and they motivate me throughout my day, whether it’s homeschool or working my way throughout the house. Between you and my coffee that’s all I need to start my day 💕😘💕
In regards to the driveway perimeter, you can use a high concentration of vinegar and a little dish soap to kill almost anything. It kills grass/weeds, etc. Just an idea, so it safe around kids/animals. We sprayed it on our property earlier as a spot treatment to kill where burrs were growing. 1oz dish soap per 1 gallon of vinegar.
I just got back from vacation to the Florida keys with my son and the grandkids and talking about NOT 🔥🔥🔥you only had to walk outside and the heat was horrible and the pool felt like a sauna but it was still amazing. I just loved this video on the patio❤❤❤❤. I really now want to add more flowers around my patio.
You can buy this plastic mesh/guard that you partially bury which stops dogs digging and after a time the grass grows through and you can barely see it (also great for high traffic areas).
Just wanted to say that I am new to your channel and I have binge watched the past couple of years if your life. I love your content. You make me laugh and you are so down to earth. Love just tagging along with you, I don’t need new babies, adoptions and major life changes. A couple of house projects and a peek at your gorgeous home and I’m happy. 😂😊
My front porch is stenciled and has held up for over a year. Definitely make sure it’s not going to rain for a few days. You’re living my dream with the land and all the animals.😊
YES girl! I’m never going to do a grandiose project. I’ll watch them anyway and wistfully recall my 39 year old energy. But I’d love to see smaller changes I’m more likely to consider doing too.
See if you can get Chipdrop in your area. It's a service that local arborists can use to dump the clippings from when they trim trees. You can get mulch and/or logs if you have a firepit. It's compelling free, although I always pay the $20 fee for the arborist, but you get a gigantic pile of mulch. You can use it fresh for cover or you can let it break down a bit, then it's great for your planting beds. $20 for an enormous pile of mulch.
Impatiens flowers and alyssums would look beautiful around the patio area....they just need watered daily. They spread out so you don't need much. Alyssums are a carpet flower and Impatiens grow up and out it would be beautiful.
My condolences on the weather. I went to TN last summer and it was 95 degrees but like 90% humidity. I was on the plane waiting to exit, checking the weather that said feels like 112. I was thinking “of course it doesn’t!” Then I got off the plane, out of the airport and started to CACKLE because it felt like at least 112. I’m from the valley in CA and it regularly gets to 100/105/110 and dang, TN was something else. I kept thinking I was pregnant 🤣
Im in Oklahoma. Born and raised here. And I feel like our weather is similar to where you are. So, when you say it’s hot and humid… girl, I can relate. Im sweating with you 😅 95° but a heat index of 120°. You can almost drink the air outside-it’s so humid.
Yes, you can stencil on the concrete, but I don’t know how your concrete is, maybe a primer will be necessary, and certainly a preferably glossy or at least satin sealer. It won’t remain super glossy with time but the glossier, the sturdier it is. Which means: no chicken running on it, no dogs fighting around while it’s drying, chiefly no children walking on it while again, it’s drying. Also if you want to be able to clean it or even power wash it, the sealer is mandatory if you want your motifs to stay put and vivid. It is not difficult to do, it just requires a little time because your concrete seems large enough. Stenciling can feel repetitive, but it’s worth the effort. Also plan to have several stencils of the same motif, so one can dry while you are using the other one, or if one breaks, at least you have the other one. I would use some acrylic paint because it is cleaner and healthier than spray paints. Oil paint is a big no no because it takes too long to dry. To paint faster you can use paint rollers but your paint must not be too liquid or too much on the roller, and if you could find a glue spray which allows you to stick and remove your stencil several times, that would make the task much easier. I used to be an arts and crafts teacher and I was an artist in home decor, hence my never ending explanation 😊
Hi I am new to your channel. Love your garden makeovers you certainly have a good eye for these things.i did a stencil on my patio blue and white took 3 weeks I sealed it many times during the process, and it looked great but we had a very hard frosted and all the paint peeled off looks a mess now! So I have put rugs down I think we will tile next . Loved the unique look of the stencils but it didn't last. I am in the UK so our weather conditions probably different to yours. Very humid here this summer ! X
I’ve done the stenciling on my concrete driveway (brick pattern) because I loved the way it looked on my relative’s driveway down south. Well, up north with the snow and ice it really didn’t hold up, plus it was more slippery. Personally, stick with the rugs.
We have been having similar weather in NJ. It was like 73 degrees this morning and 100% humidity and it was so gross out. Just walking outside doing nothing makes you sweat.
I'm glad to receive this notification, it's been a miserable and boring week of post-surgery. I'm an impatient patient who wants to recover in one day(not!), so any video, I'm here for it. I like how you were decorating that area, but I also wanted to see more of what the dogs were up to. Over the past 13- 14 years, I've come to love Walmart shopping. Thanks for making me smile. Happy 4th of July!
You have been dying here as well. I’m currently 4 months pregnant and it’s been killing me. I had to cut most of my hair off because it was just too hot for me.
Love these videos! Great job. And girl…here in East Texas we are having the same weather as you…hot and humid, high 90’s w/ heat index over 100! Miserable!!!! 🥵
I love when you take me to Walmart Angie! American shops are like wonderlands to us, we don't have them the same here in Ireland! 🤩 We'd also kill for a few weeks of devil's buttcrack weather, its raining non-stop and fairly cold all summer here! 😂
Just watching this today, have you thought of the plant stands with casters for your hydrangeas and plants by the pavilion so they're easier to move? Also, where did you buy those pavilions? We are looking for something similar. 😊
I love your idea for curtain lights so I looked and it looks like Amazon does sell solar powered curtain lights if you decide you do want to do that. Your outside sitting area is beautiful
Hi! For the mosquitoes have you thought about a soap bubble machine? some also used Irish spring soap shavings/rubbing on wood to keep them in check..things I've seen during my doom scrolling 😅
Hahahaha I was just telling my husband about “let’s roll that beautiful bean footage” and how I always want to say it but no one knows the joke!!! He thought I was very strange and also did not remember the commercial
Oh dear, the talk about humidity is killing me, I'm in Saskatchewan, Canada (aka North), it's usually so dry here so any humidity . . . I just don't know how to deal, never mind with the combo of the heat you get there. I'd melt instantly.
I went to town last night in pj shorts and the loosest t-shirt, also happened to be a dirty shirt, I own. They're lucky I wasn't in My bathing suit. I get the heat sister. In se tn
Ours just go in themselves. You have to keep them in the coop and small run for a couple of weeks when you first get them moved in and then they just know 😊
My favorite kind of content from you. Just simple life and projects. Reminds me of when y'all first moved there. It was always fun to see what you were doing and inspired me to get moving. Enjoyed this!!
@@user-so4tr5qq5dI think she looks great no matter if she wears makeup or not!
For the weeds in the gravel drive, my brother started using a special blow torch meant to kill all the weeds! No chemicals, and super fun to use! 😂

I would definitely do flagstones or stepping stones around the cement, I feel like that’d be a good transition
Would love to see all the animals in a vlog! The llama’s, goats, horses, etc

I would love an update on all the animals! I loved seeing you interact with them!

I’ve been LOVING your recent videos! They bring such joy🥰 thank you for taking the time to make them!
Yes, the stenciled rugs would look great. ❤️ Just add a sealer over the stenciling. It holds up well

I love the small project share! 🎉❤
Hostas under the trees! the verigated ones with white and green and would bloom purple Would be beautiful
Cement blocks maybe 2 high with stucco and paint could create a retaking wall or build an above ground planter.

Maybe Playground rubber mulch for around the concrete? Try it on a heavy traffic side and see if it works before putting it everywhere.

That storm was epic here
Today's word is abscond. Always a vocabulary lesson to be had while watching your videos. 😂 ❤️
We painted lines for bat tennis on our concrete so you can move the furniture out and play. It is so fun!
I’ve done the stenciling on my concrete driveway (brick pattern) because I loved the way it looked on my relative’s driveway down south. Well, up north with the snow and ice it really didn’t hold up, plus it was more slippery. Personally, stick with the rugs.
"I'm just a miserable cow right now" 😂 this is just the content you won't find anywhere else on the internet, folks. Gold .
We have been having similar weather in NJ. It was like 73 degrees this morning and 100% humidity and it was so gross out. Just walking outside doing nothing makes you sweat.
Omg 73 sounds so nice. It’s been 105-110 and 100% humidity where I live.
Oh yeah, you really need to get some electricity for your pavilion. Heck, I would even run some misters too.

Omg here in Texas we’ve been 110 plus high humidity so feels like 120 🥵
In Texas we get the temps from the west but the humidity from Gulf of Mexico.
You have been dying here as well. I’m currently 4 months pregnant and it’s been killing me. I had to cut most of my hair off because it was just too hot for me.
Love these videos! Great job. And girl…here in East Texas we are having the same weather as you…hot and humid, high 90’s w/ heat index over 100! Miserable!!!! 🥵
I feel ya on the heat. Here in KY, June 30th was 124 with the heat index!
I love when you take me to Walmart Angie! American shops are like wonderlands to us, we don't have them the same here in Ireland! 🤩
We'd also kill for a few weeks of devil's buttcrack weather, its raining non-stop and fairly cold all summer here! 😂

U could stare at your yard and flowers etc ALL DAY LONG! Thanks for another great share. ❤🤍💙❤️🤍💙❤️🤍💙
Happy 4th of July!
Hahahaha I was just telling my husband about “let’s roll that beautiful bean footage” and how I always want to say it but no one knows the joke!!! He thought I was very strange and also did not remember the commercial
Love the patio!
The pavilion chairs are so cute!
It’s definitely summer in the southeast. I call South Georgia home!
What about a tile mosaic for the covered area?
The chickens are so cute hey Mom we are here to help
God I need that Fanny pack situation! I need me that for training my dogs!
90s and off and on smoky for the last 6 wks. Extremely dry were in central WI.
Looks lovely, I'd gladly come and have a cuppa with you there, new subscriber from England, UK

I need that mug! What a great movie 🎬
Definitely add electricity and a few outdoor ceiling fans.
Congratulations
It looks beautiful. Love watching your channel. ❤🎉 Happy 4th of July.
Hey sweet lady! You know I luv ya Ang ❤ tell CR I said what’s up
Have a wonderful 4th 🎉
The wet bulb phenomenon is actually quite dangerous. Stay in the ac!🥵🔥
Haha the cup 😅
Enjoyed
Where are those pants from? When you're working outside. Sorry if you've shared them before 😋
Beautiful
Leaf blower and yes pavers….
What color black did you paint your cabinet. I’m about to paint a pice of furniture
Unrelated to this video BUT I need help. I'm am not doing well teaching my kid to read. Any pointers, recommendations??
Get the book "Teach Your Child to Read in 100 Easy Lessons"
I've taught 4 children to read using it. 👍
Love if not everything is perfect as thats more real life for me lol
Do you keep those potted king palms out all year round?
I went to town last night in pj shorts and the loosest t-shirt, also happened to be a dirty shirt, I own. They're lucky I wasn't in My bathing suit. I get the heat sister. In se tn
How about cobble stone around it
How do you get all the chickens back in the house at night ?
Ours just go in themselves. You have to keep them in the coop and small run for a couple of weeks when you first get them moved in and then they just know 😊
Use monkey grass or something similar around the concrete slab.
Paving stones
What kind of weed killer do you use?
👏💕
❤❤❤
❤
Did I miss the final reveal of the older girls room?
Angela looks so different now, I watched you back in 2016, I don’t even recognize you, did you get plastic surgery?
❤❤❤❤❤❤
it's 90 and you're wearing a sweatshirt? LOL
10:15 I thought your outfit was cute 🤷🏻♀️
❤️🤍💙
makes me chuckle that it's so hot... yet you're still both wearing pants... even jeans?
