From my earlier post, My Style Journey: From high school on, I developed the mentality that it’s not what on the outside that counts. I can rock inside stuff like being kind and helpful, but I can’t rock the outside stuff. So I’ve pretty much given up trying any harder than “presentable.” Clothes were designed to […]
Oh, man. We were due. We’ve had a lot of so-so or fine Mass experiences lately. So we were due for a whopper. But first– the picture. This is my Sunday best from last week, because I didn’t get around to posting then. It works out great because this week I didn’t get around to posing. […]
I took the oldest two to Mass today, so I was able to hear the whole homily. The wheelchair accessible pew was even open. Yay! I tried something new for My Sunday Best. I’ve been watching a lot of Hilary Rushford from Dean Street Society, and one of her tips is shopping your closet for […]
My (Saturday Night) Sunday Best! We visited another parish this week for Mass on Saturday night, and Moe fell asleep on the 40ish minute drive there. That meant he was still waking up during most of Mass. He wakes up hard. And slowly. So although he looked surly, he was quiet and still for almost […]
This is me. In my Sunday best. The shirt is from Lands’ End. The pants are from a magical Dia Box. Now that that’s out of the way, we can get on to the real stuffs. We got a new hand-me-down couch that didn’t really flow with our current gallery wall, and […]
Last week for Christmas I wanted to get a family picture next to the nativity at church. But it didn’t happen. We got one of just the kids, but David was preparing for his lectorly duties, and so the full family pic never happened. Here are the kids on Christmas Day: We decided to wear […]
I feel like I’ve been through it all in my relationship with Dia & Co. My first box was like a great first date. Then with Box #2 we had our first fight. It’s like Dia & Co. wasn’t even listening to me. I decided to talk about my needs, and we worked out […]
My Sunday Best: New Shoes! Welcome to My Sunday Best, hosted by Rosie at a blog for my mom. To Mass this week I wore the dress of always with a grey older-than-dirt sweater and black leggings. The stars of the show are my new not-Croc shoes! Lands’ End ran a super great Black Friday […]
This is a recycled picture, but the outfit is exactly the same. My kids couldn’t figure out the camera this week, so I gave up after 10 pictures of the ceiling fan, just my head, just my torso…you get the idea. The last time I linked up for My Sunday Best, the title […]
