weseestarsatnight

we’re busily working on a really big shop update today. part of this week’s update are a large stock of these Elementary Charts we recently acquired. this one is our favorite. makes us wish we fit in that camping trip this summer…

one of us has been hit with a cold (oh, hello fall) and we’re hoping it doesn’t make it’s way to the the whole family. currently loading up on orange juice, chicken soup and obsessively washing our hands.

p.s. look out for the shop update (tomorrow) + be our fan on facebook for a chance to win a 3p4 giveaway.

here it is.

e_room

holly started her first day of preschool today. she was pretty excited, this being her second year there and next year she is on to kindergarten. this means because our son otis takes great naps in the mornings i have a little more time to work with stu on the shop. our work environment is completely organized and clean so it feels motivating and productive to work in here today. don’t you love it when you’re organized?

currently working on a big update this week and are excited about some pretty amazing shop finds. can’t wait to share them with you!

we were together, i have forgotten the rest.

baci

This weekend Stu and I cleaned and organized our house like crazy. We were able to go through boxes that we never got around to unpack since we moved here two years ago. Felt so good to get rid of stuff, recycle and donate these things (mostly toys, clothes and old papers) we no longer use.

In sorting through some random stuff – I found two things I wanted to share:

-this wrapper I must have saved from a Baci chocolate.
-and this song that was part of an old mix tape I had.

Enjoy, hope your weekend was a good one!
