When our friend, Candice, from Mom Most Traveled told us about the 6 blogger tea party for moms this week we wanted to help spread the word. 

So what is this tea party all about? Six blogging friends got together and decided to do a week of giveaways for moms!  Go Natural Baby tends to focus on child/baby product giveaways, so we are delighted that moms can enter to win all kinds of goodies  every day this week.  We really love these blogs and encourage you to get over there quick! Mom Most Traveled , Katydid and Kid, Fractured Toy,  Superdumb Supervillain, A Ordinary Life, 7 Clown Circus

See you there!

Well, I have hit a point that I just don’t have the time to do everything (be an at- home mom to my six year old, design, run a business, take care of the house etc etc), so having someone else cut the grass is well, a luxury! I still feel “new” here to Portland so I am not familiar with all the businesses, but I have found a green lawn care company!!
Starting next week my grass will be mowed with a  bio-diesel lawnmower and by a company that is green (only organic fertilizer here). I will fill you in with photos and more photos after they get started.

If you are in the Portland area you can give Good Green Neighbors a call, they are green + friendly.

Blessings,
Justyn
