Vintage


Well, in case you don’t recognize me, this is a shot of Manda and I a few years ago. My mom made these matching dresses for us. Talk about adorable, right? You don’t need to tell me! For my birthday my mom sent me a package with a wide variety of fun birthday-like gifts. Well imagine my delight when among the cards and cash I found this jewel of a dress she included for Sophie. She had handed it down to my aunt for my cousin Julia to wear, and that blessed sister of hers had kept it through all these years and just gave it back to her! It fits Sophie perfectly and she looks darling in it… but don’t take my word for it, see for yourselves!



Okay and how could I refuse to put in this picture?

How adorable! I went through all my old dresses that my mom kept and they were ugly. You're lucky you have acute remnant from your childhood. Oh wait I wouldn't havea girl to put it on anyway!

That is too cute Jess. I'm lucky enough to have the dress I was blessed in that was also used as a hand-me-down to various family members! Maybe one day I'll actually have a daughter to wear it :).

Sophie looks so cute! And I love the pic at the end with her smiling. You really have such a beautiful girl....and I am sure your second girl will be just as adorable. Bahaa.
