Modest Monday

In a time where less is more, clothing trends have really taken a turn for the worse.  We are so busy trying to make our little girl grow up that we seem to lose our senses when it comes to dressing them!  Tori and I have decided to run a weekly tag along called Modest Monday's!

Rules are simple:  Take a picture of yourself or some willing victim and show how beautiful modest clothing can be.  Dresses are NOT required!  This is for the young lady who can look beautiful in a skirt and in a cute pair of pants.  Most importantly, have fun with this!  I can't wait to see all the super cute outfits that everyone can come up with!

Here's Tori's submission for Modest Monday!

Outfit from Target (love that place!)
Cost:  Shirt $5.00 on the clearance rack
Cropped Jeans: $15.00 on sale
Converse Tennis Shoes: $25.00

Now its your turn!  Just sign up below on the linky and we'll be sure to stop by and visit, leave a message and even follow you!

Welcome to Stained Glass Butterflies!

HI THERE!!

Tori and I are so glad you found us and hope you'll stick around awhile!  Stained Glass Butterflies is a brand new blog with an old blogger helping out! Let's do some introductions, okay?  Okay!


My name is Michelle, I'm the chica on the left...my left, not your left...hehe!  I'm the Mama of this duo of disaster!  I have a blog called Faith on Fire where you'll see all my rambling about what is going on in my life.  Its more of a documentary of who I am.  Butterflies for me is all about having fun!  What kind of fun you ask?  Oh, picture taking, cooking, making stuff...you know, that kind of fun!  Things to avoid at butterflies...dirt, bugs, snakes, anything that makes noise at night...um, you get my point right?  Most important bit of info on me would be that I love the Lord, love my precious husband Nick, and love my four kiddo's!  


Now onto Tori!


So, my name is Tori, I'm the cuter, younger person in the picture above :p. That's my mom next to me, so you may already know all kinds of fun things about me. Butterflies is more of a place to show off my attempting photography and for random rambling about what's going on in my life... All the fun things that is. I've never done blogging before, and I don't have a fantastic history  in writing, so try your hardest to keep up with me :)
