It’s Winter Again!

Dear Colorado,
 
Is it necessary to continue to tease me with the idea of Spring? Last week, I was wearing shorts and flip flops and I was quite smitten with you. However, when I awoke this morning to a very thick blanket of snow everywhere, you disappointed me. Please stop playing with my emotions and let springtime happen already.

Xo,
Sweet Greens.

P.S. Eben is home from school today {due to the snow} and I have a lot of work that needs to be done. Now, that just isn’t fair.

Vintage Car Love:: 1957 Sprite 14 Caravan

Isn’t this little green 1957 Sprite 14 Caravan fabulous? I love the color and details and the fact that she {yes, it is a girl, here name is Constance} is 14′ long with 2 double beds. She reminds me of the playhouse that I had at my grandmother’s house growing up. {smitten}

How about you lovely readers, do you love vintage caravans as much as I do?

DIY: Kids Recycled Yo-Yo Ball

I love these recycled sock material Yo-Yo balls found at Made by Joel. Joel is a fantastic stay at home father and artist who makes lovely little things for his lovely little ones, and documents them on his blog. Wow. I think toddlers and older children alike would delight in these Yo-Yo balls. Fun to make, fun to play with, no?

XO.
