Halloween Costumes
1. Little Lamb | 2. Little Lion | 3. Gnomes | 4. Bartlett Pear | 5. Chia Pet 6. Ewoks | 7. UP | 8. Mary Poppins It’s almost Halloween, and I have so much fun seeing what creative ideas people come up with. They are much better than the typical scary mask or princess dress. I love the simplicity of the baby costumes. When I was little I was easily upset if things weren’t comfortable, specifically if …
Finders Keepers: TOMS Ballet Flats
Source: TOMS I heard a rumor a while back that TOMS was starting a new line of shoes, called ballet flats. I love TOMS, their company, product, and everything they stand for. This past summer they started a line of sunglasses. They are really stylish and I would wear any of them, but I know better than to let myself buy …
Photo of the Week: Softball Sunset
Our great friend Erika joined a softball league this fall, and we got to see her play a double header last week. It was so much fun going up into the hills of Glendale with friends to cheer her on! Near the end of the first game the sun set and I snapped this photo. We’ll be going again this …
French Clarendon
If you follow A Pair of Pears on Facebook, you know that last week we were the winning bid for a wood font on ebay! The font is called French Clarendon; we really love it. Yesterday it came in the mail! It’s old, a little worn, and has that great wood smell to it; all the things that make it …
Morning Brew: Rain

Normally we would have just naturally woken up when the sun made our bedroom too bright to sleep, but this morning it’s rainy and gloomy out. It hasn’t rained in a …

This month is Halloween, and along with that comes an excuse to dress up in costumes together. Here is a brand new desktop wallpaper to get you in the mood for fall decorations. For the letter D we …
Finders Keepers: Coffee Joulies
Source: Joulies I have this problem; every morning while we are reading our daily blogs, we enjoy a cup of fresh coffee. However, it takes me a good 20-30 minutes to drink my cup. I hardly ever end up finishing it, because by the time there are a few sips left, the remainder of my coffee is cold. I can’t stand cold coffee…yuck. …
