Dress...inspiration






Sorry guys. I am always on the look out for awesome, modest, vintage-inspired dresses.
My fav clothing sites are...

*Modcloth- for the indie, vintage fashionetas

*Anthropologie - for when you had a lot of money in the bank

*Down East Basics-
cute and inexpensive

*Ruche- similar to Modcloth

Enjoy!

No, I didn't fall off the face of the earth.

Wow. I actually visited my own blog and am writing on it too.

A lot has happened since my last post. Back then I was still living in Puerto Rico teaching school and attempting to be the perfect Mennonite girl who cooks, sews, bakes, and decorates like Martha Stewart and can sing like Charlotte Church. I thought my future consisted of finding a good Mennonite boy, getting married, and having half a dozen kids. I know that is really stereotypical and there is nothing wrong with it; that is what I thought I wanted.

Well, I was wrong. God gently squashed the box I was putting myself, my family, and Him in. (But let me just say I love all Mennonite friends and Puerto Rico was a great experience. I miss it there ubber-much and am praying that I get there this summer.)

Fast forward three years.

I am a full-time student at Everett Community College on my way to becoming an ESL teacher. I am a part-time student at Destiny International School of ministry on my way to becoming a radical leader for Jesus. I have a 14 month old brother name Jaden. I do the unromantic job of cleaning peoples toilets. And I have a church I love. Sometimes all of it just takes my breath away.

Anyway, that's my back-story. Stay-tuned there is much more to come. :-)
