I have a blog friend over at Clothed Much that inspires me and I thought I would do a little something with that inspiration... Every Sunday I'd like to share a weekly {Sunday's Best} post with photos that emphasize fashion and style. Those of you that know me well are aware that being a young mom of 3 means athletic tees and shorts with flip flops or tennies every day of the week! So, with that said, I'd like to share/journal the {creative outlet} that dressing up is for me and my family. I love the {personal expression} that comes with dressing and accessorizing and of course the hunt to find the {perfect piece} to complete an outfit. I love sales, second-hand stores, my sewing machine, and clearance racks. I love anything cute and where ever I find cute {and reasonable} I buy, whether it be Walmart, the mall, thrift stores, Joann Fabrics, or boutiques. In my opinion, it's not really about {where} you buy your clothes. That's pretty easy. It's more about how the {puzzle} fits together once you discover all of the {pieces}. It's about {the masterpiece}.

So, enjoy this mom's fun idea to share her family's Sunday outfits!

"I will not die an unlived life. I will not live in fear of falling or catching fire. I choose to inhabit my days, to allow my living to open me, to make me less afraid, more accessible, to loosen my heart until it becomes a wing, a torch, a promise. I choose to risk my significance; to live so that which comes to me as seed goes to the next as blossom and that which comes to me as blossom, goes on as fruit."

{ David O. McKay }

"The noblest calling in the world is motherhood. True motherhood is the most beautiful of all arts, the greatest of all professions. She who can paint a masterpiece, or who can write a book that will influence millions, deserves the plaudits and admiration of mankind; but she who rears successfully a family of healthy, beautiful sons and daughters whose immortal souls will exert an influence throughout the ages long after paintings have faded, and books and statues shall have decayed or been destroyed, deserves the highest honor that man can give, and the choicest blessings of God."

{ William Ellery Channing }

"To live content with small means; to seek elegance rather than luxury; and refinement rather than fashion; to be worthy, not respectable; and wealthy, not rich; to study hard, think quietly, talk gently, act frankly; to listen to stars and birds, to babes and sages, with open heart; to bear all cheerfully, do all bravely, await occasion, hurry never; in a word, to let the spiritual, unbidden and unconscious grow up through the common. This is to be my symphony."
