We know things have been quiet 'round these parts.  

We've been busy with vacations and enjoying the sunshine, we hope you have been too!  

But we are also working hard making a new blog! Lots of changes coming your way!  We're excited, and we hope you will be too!  Stay tuned!!!

Happy Independence Day!

Darling sisters Sofia, Amelia, and Gabriella stopped by Grasshopper

this Saturday to pick out brand new Wild Carrots dresses to add to their collection.

 

Sofia, 8

 

Amelia, 6

 

Gabriella, 3

 

The girls had fun trying on dresses and showing us what the dresses are meant to do....

look sweet and allow for fun times (like riding a Pewi bike!)

 

 

The girls went for oranges, but we have many other colorful prints too!

 

Grasshopper's picks for Moms!

 

We wanted to share with you some of our favorite local businesses!  We love these places for making our lives easier and better with the products they offer, or the service they provide.  

 

 

Grocery shopping can be overwhelming and time consuming, especially when you are in a rush, and especially if you have hungry little ones with you.  So organics to you is perfect.  They are a locally owned company that delivers organic food right to your doorstep!  It's not only convienent, but we love that they use produce from local farms, and are committed to sustainability.  

 

 

We love this Pilates studio.  It's so important to take time to keep yourself healthy and in shape, and crowded gyms are not much of a motivator. Whether you do private sessions, or small matt classes, Urban Pilates peaceful space and amazing instructors will make exercising something you look forward to, rather than dread.  

 

 

Don't worry, it's not a candy shop that will ruin all the work you just did at Urban Pilates.  Sugaring is the most natural form of hair removal (lemon+water+sugar) that leaves behind no toxins or residue.  It's great for sensitive skin, and you don't have to wait forever in between sessions for hair to grow back like you do when waxing.  

 

Our very own shop girl Grace is a lady of many talents, including being an amazing hair stylist, and she works at Tiger Tiger. All of the lovely ladies that work at Tiger Tiger do great work. Whether you are looking for a new cut, or amazing new color, the ladies at Tiger Tiger will make you look amazing! And, they are just a few shops down from us on Alberta! 

 

 

Mic-O-Mics

 

 

We are really excited about new German toy, Mic-O-Mics.  

Are they a puzzle? A construction kit? A fun toy?  All of the above!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Take them apart, and put them back together.  We think your future engineer will enjoy them as much as your future pilot or race car driver. 

Grasshopper Kids in action!

Just in time...

 

Have you seen how nice it is outside in Portland?  Of course you have!

 Just in time for the warm weather are darling new pieces from one of our favorites, Winter Water Factory (designed and made in the USA from 100% organic cotton).

 

 

 

 

Those Baby Legs have UPF 50 to protect little legs.

We love Giddy Giddy!  These handmade clips are the perfect accessory to a sunny new outfit.

Everyone Plays!!!

 

We're so excited for tomorrow!  Ground breaking ceremony for Harper's Playground tomorrow morning, 10AM, at Arbor Lodge Park.  Harper's Playground will be an all inclusive playground for children and adults of all abilities.
