Fashion Follies March 23, 2010, at 10:30 pm | Remember how I blogged yesterday about being relieved that the girls do take after me at least a little bit? Well, our activity today definitely put the matter to rest. The girls put on a rainy-day fashion show for me using new spring sandals from their Grammie and hand-me-down hats and skirts from their cousin Katelyn. It should be kept in mind that these two individuals, my mom and my sister-in-law Julie (Katelyn’s mom), have excellent taste in clothes/colors/fashion, etc. But somehow, my girls still managed to make their outfits clash rather badly, with no help from my choice of striped rainbow pants. So, my apologies to Mom and Julie -it’s me and my genes, not you and your gifts! Hopefully the girls will compensate for their inherited fashion clumsiness by hanging around with you two some more!

ABOUT US I'm blessed to be saved by the grace of God, loved by my wonderful husband Jim, and embraced by my twin girls, Rebecca Faith and Susanna Joy and my sons Jimmy and Danny. I started this blog in May 2008 when I was hospitalized for pre-term labor at 24 weeks gestation. The Lord allowed me to keep the girls inside until they were 34 weeks along, and on July 27th, Rebecca made her debut, followed by Susanna, five minutes later, on July 28th. We ecstatically welcomed Jimmy into our lives on April 25th, 2011, and Danny on August 31, 2012. This blog has been a personal journal of faith and motherhood and the only way I can remember which child did what and when. Thanks for stopping by to share in my Faith and Joy!

I don’t know about your genes, Emily….perhaps they just skipped a generation. Those outfits would not look out of place AT ALL in Berkeley, CA or (Berzerkly as it’s affectionately called.) After all, you were born in that crazy, anything goes city, Emily.
Love,
Grammie
Mom, I don’t know if I’m comforted or not knowing that the girls’ styles would fit right in on the UCB campus! 🙂
Ah so cute- I love the last pic. This reminds me I will have some sandals to send out soon after I go through Kate’s from last year…have a good day!
