Feminine Friday

Because today is also my Feminine Friday, I'm combining two posts in one. At the bottom is my intro for the blog party!!

It's time for us to show our devotion to Christ with our appearance. We come together every week in order to show that femininity and modesty is achievable in today's society. We celebrate our softness and meekness and I hope you've also felt something move on the inside as well.

You can link up a past/present pic or post for FF. This linky will be up all weekend, so you will have time to participate. If this is your first FF, start here to see why I felt led in my spirit to start this meme.

you can probably see my littles trying to get in the shot
that's her arm there in the corner

they also join the fun of FF with me
they really do love wearing dresses

 Whose adorning let it not be that outward adorning of plaiting the hair, and of wearing of gold, or of putting on of apparel;
But let it be the hidden man of the heart, in that which is not corruptible, even the ornament of a meek and quiet spirit, which is in the sight of God of great price.
For after this manner in the old time the holy women also, who trusted in God, adorned themselves, being in subjection unto their own husbands:
1 Peter 3:3-5

Love your site! What a testament to your faith and family. I also love that you are teaching your daughters about godly femininity! Don't ever believe that they will change no matter what! My girls didn't, although they have their own style, they are modest without trying. I am soooo thankful!

Visiting from UBP '10.
