I Always Liked Matching Clothes
Jul 4th, 2008 by Jendi
The challenge: Make 3 pairs of culottes for my 3 yo, 2yo, and I with 3 yards of material.
The verdict: After an hour and a half of trying 3 different patterns…and lots of sighing…it just couldn’t be done.
The resolution: Make a skirt for me and culottes for the girls.
We wore them a week ago and I only had one pocket sewn on each one. This time we have two pockets each.
I actually sewed my 3 year old’s pocket to the side and it hung funny. I didn’t realize it until we were 2 1/2 hours away at my aunt’s house! Grandma and a seam ripper to the rescue.
I’d like to include a special thank you to my wonderful husband you took time out of working on his remote control airplane - on a holiday even - to snap these pictures. Isn’t he wonderful! 
Hope all of you have a great day!

I like matching clothes too. I like them so much, I bought my whole family matching shirts to wear today.

Too cute!! And is this your backyard? Beautiful location, I love the green and the trees.
Jennifer, I like the place as well because that is very green and refreshing. Girls are also too cute and they make the place feel like heaven.
Happy 4th of July! You have a big and beautiful garden.

my mom always dressed my sister & i alike — but i never really minded it.. i always looked up to my big sister so if i resembled her in any fashion — i was a pretty happy kid! : D
Do moms love to see their babies look alike? It is wonderful to see those kids who are not twins but looks alike.
What lovely pictures of all of you in your cute matching clothes!
