Jane and the ducks

Thank you!

Yes, thank you for still stopping by despite the very slow summer months on this little blog of mine. We are back home but it took us 2 days to unpack and 2 more to switch the girls bedrooms. Lily moved in the big room with a desk because 1st grade = homework! I am no longer drinking coffee which may explain why I am so laid back these days and why the sewing machine is still waiting. I have lots of ideas though (that happens a lot when I travel;-) and we will be back very soon, I promise!

Triplets

Our flight has been delayed and we are still in France. It will be nice to get back to work in a few days but in the meantime, we play outside and look who's in the backyard? 

Back from Le Touquet...

Great weather this year! Even the water was warm!!! More sewing coming soon, will be back in DC in about 2 weeks! XOXO

Beads + Flowers

One minute from start to finish! Have your kids make some on the beach this summer!

Vintage Toys

Farm animals, dollhouse with orange and brown carpeting + patterned wallpaper;-), my old lunchbag and three Barbie dolls all dressed in yellow. I love the old Barbie dresses, they are so well made with no velcro at all;-)

Manon and the Baby Cow

A little calf born that day. Sweet!

Vintage Dresses

There is nothing better than finding lovely vintage dresses for the girls in my mom's attic! In fact, I was in Belgium the other day and many dresses from Maan, Quincy and such were very simple and quite similar to the ones above. It makes me happy!

Good Night!

We are going to Portugal and I really needed a new nightdress. Here it is, in blue Snug. The pattern is from Citronille. We did some shopping too in Lille and I found some cute Bonpoint things for the girls and a funky sweater for me at Zadig & Voltaire. With the crazy Euro though, I think that's it for me this year;-)
