Vintage Inspired: Tobogganing

In the thick of the winter, there is nothing better than going sledding with two darling kids. We bundled to the brim and set out on our plastic orange toboggan. It was a short lived run, but a good one, full of giggles and red cheeks. We tipped over, got oodles of snow down our boots and had ice cold fingers, but isn't that what winter is all about? When they seemed to be tuckered out (which only took about five minutes), we came home to some homemade banana macadamia nut muffins and some hot lemon tea. Wonderful winter day!

What We Wore: Not Appropriate Snow Gear

What a blustery day! I arrived in Minneapolis on Friday to help set up the Mighty Swell sale and to celebrate my Mom's birthday, but apparently Mother Nature had other plans. I arrived just in time for the biggest blizzard in over twenty years. Ladybird and I tried so hard to get to Tarnish and Gold yesterday, but repeatedly got stuck in the snow and never made it. We were very sad, but are hoping for the best today with new Sunday pop-up hours from 10-7. There was a great community feel in the neighborhood, which was really nice to see, everyone bundled up from head to toe, pushing and shoveling and bucketing each other's cars out of the snowbanks. We took some photos of our snowy adventure, up to our knees in white fluff.
