I love this simplistic vintage chalkboard sign and message. 

 The summer is getting a little long and hot, but I am loving the extra time with  my kids at home.  Yesterday I played a nice, long game of Scrabble with my son, looked through my daughter’s baby book and photos (per her request), and sang lullabies from when they were both infants.

Good, purposeful stuff.

In the spirit of things,  my little zookeeper asked me if we could make these cute Beavers for a snack today.  I couldn’t help but share them - first because they make me laugh and second, because I love the way our Brown Gingham Kid’s Oilcloth Tablecloth looks under the colorful plate!

 

And what do you know – those peanut butter noses wiped right off the oilcloth when they were done!   After all, you’ve got to keep the zoo nice & clean…
