Sweet Greens

Hello, Friends! Can you believe the weekend is already here? Eben and I are spending tomorrow morning picking out new eye glasses! I am smitten with Warby Parker and Toms Eyewear, however they don’t have any options for the kiddos. 🙁

Eben of course wants to find eye glasses that come in fun colors – his current pair are bright orange! How about you fabulous readers, do you have a favorite go to source for children’s eye glasses?

While I do a little more Internet research, here are a few fun green things to keep you busy:

– Lego figures on their way to Jupiter. Love it.
– 9 cosmetic safety myths – don’t get fooled!
– Are you an engineer looking for a job? Greenpeace is hiring.
– The sea turtles are off and swimming!
– When I registered my car – Eben insisted that we get this license plate to support Florida aquaculture!
– Keep your pets safe this summer with natural flea and tick remedies.

Have a great summer weekend – I can’t wait to see you on Monday.

 Do you have a birthday party or two or your child’s summer calendar? Wouldn’t it be fun to surprise someone special on their birthday with a pop up card designed just for them? That’s exactly what my son and I decided to do to surprise a close family friend. What’s even better is that the supplies we used are eco-friendly and recycled. Check out his fun DIY recycled pop-up card that Eben and I made for a friend.

Hello, Everyone! We are heading to Coconut Grove this weekend for a family pool party. Eben’s response: “Great! I can swim with the Koi.” The funniest part – we are meeting before for a game of bowling. Grandpa Sweet Greens and Eben’s Uncle Louis meet every week to bowl together and Eben loves to bowl, so they have decided to invite him for a game or two. How fun is that? What sort of summer adventure do you have planned for the weekend?

While I pack my swimsuit and get geared up for bowling, here are a few green things that I thought you would enjoy:

– I am a sucker for super-organization: kids edition!
– Who knew a Porcupine could be so cute?
– People Towels is having a sale right in time for back to school!
– I am a little obsessed with this recycled outdoor furniture.
– This poster really says it all! Do you agree?

I hope you have an amazing weekend, stay tuned next week for some great back to school giveaways!
