This week is boys' week!!!! And from the beginning we knew what we wanted to do.....make it retro boys' week! And so we give you...our "North by Northwest" adventure pajamas. The inspiration for Simon's jammies was a 1950's baseball uniform, very "Sandlot--esque" which is considered a classic film in all of the Evans' households. And Aaron got a retro bathrobe with pajama bottoms complete with bias tape finishes. So, now it's your turn, go to Project Run and Play and VOTE for your ... View the Post
Today We Are Over at Sew Home Grown
Today I am so happy to be over at my friend Jessica's blog. (Ok, so I've never met Jessica in real life. But we've emailed...and I love her blog...and we're kindred spirits...and I really like her so I'm claiming her as a friend.)She runs a great homemaking blog called "Sew Home Grown" which you can get to by clicking here: and read her fun series on how to cure the summertime blues. I'll be there today proving that I am the meanest mom in America...curing our summer time blues by ... View the Post
Mustache Monday
Remember these? Well, Stacy (my sister-in-law baker extraordinaire) got some new molds and stopped by Friday afternoon with some new stashes for my crew to try out. Obviously they were a hit. (I spent 99% of my picture taking time asking Gracie to quit licking hers for just a minute and asking Simon to look at me instead of trying to look like a "bad guy" and scaring Grace.) They were just so tempting... And fun... And delightfully messy... That they couldn't help but be ... View the Post
$5 Friday—4th of July Board Shorts
I usually do 4th of July outfits for the kids....or in past years it has been a dress for Hannah and then finding something that matched for Aaron. But, with two boys this 4th (yay!) I thought it might be fun to do another matchy-matchy type outfits. (They're only little for a few years....right?) And this year, I kind of wanted to go understated. I don't know why really....I just did. Probably, mostly so they would be outfits that they could all wear again without screaming "I am a 4th of ... View the Post
Boys Week + Thrifted Thursdays = Field Journals
Simon likes to collect and inspect weird things he finds outside like bugs, rocks, and these little beauties: (Anyone know what they are? Or will I have to just wait until they hatch inside the jar on my kitchen counter?) This summer I decided that when he makes his discoveries I will have him make a page about them at some point during that day. On the page I have him record things like what he found, where he found it, what he thinks things are or look like. Here he traced the ... View the Post
A Guest Post and Our Boys– Isaac’s Cargo Shorts
First of all, we are over at She Wears Flowers today. We love her blog! I have been reading it for some time now, and she has the best projects. Her felt cakes were some of the first things that I ever saw from her and they had me hooked. Check us out over there...for some FABRIC SCRAP BRACELETS. (Because we really do have more scraps than any human should have. Literally.) So, go there. NOW. And then come back...there is a boy's project today too. And here is the post for ... View the Post
