What I did today

AWESOMENESS!

I love them. I'm very happy with the way they turned out.
Especially since this is my first time trying the new look.



I was inspired by
Lynnie from her blog, Lyndar the Merciless

Worth Waiting For

One day at church, not long after I had graduated high school,

we sang the song

"I Love to See the Temple". 

I broke down in tears. 

The spirit testified to me of the importance of the temple

I knew that I wanted to go to the temple,

that I was going to do anything and everything to get there.

So over the next 2 years, I prepared myself

I changed
My testimony grew
I learned who I was

I was a Daughter of God

As I watched my cousin get baptized this past weekend

and as we sang the same song 

I remembered that experience I had years ago. 

As I rubbed my growing belling

and looked at my handsome husband,

I knew that I had made the right choice. 

I knew that because of her parents actions

and their desire to do what's right, 

Our daughter would be sealed to us for eternity. 

I pray for my children

my cousins 

My brother

My sisters-in-law

For the kids in primary 

I pray that they will know who they are
that they will be strong,

be different,

be patient. 

That they will wait.

Because it is
WORTH WAITING FOR

Chris and Stephanie

UPDATE

Chris and I are expecting our first baby. 

It's a girl!

Not gonna lie.. I was a bit surprised. 

Always thought I would have a boy first

and I always wanted a boy first

a boy who would be a good big older brother

But God knows better

I  am getting used to the idea of having 

another princess around the house. 

We can't wait for her to arrive. 

So excited to become parents.

It's so springy

I am

Very Pleased.

Weekend to do list,

This weekend I am making a chalk message board

a head board for our bed

a spring center piece for the table

and I am finishing my sunburst mirrors.

Long to-do list... I know...

I'd prefer to be called motivated 

...........

not crazy

and

because I love my Husband

and because I usually want things that aren't in our budget

I 

WANT 

this

Rain or Shine

So glad you're mine.

I'll update you Sunday when 

(hopefully)

all my projects are done.

Mrs. Crafty

This is my finished wreath

I wish I had taken pictures 

of the wreath-making process. 

I started with a wreath

some felt

 

and yarn

 

and 

they

became

this

 

I love it so much. I am so happy with the way it turned out.

.

Really, I couldn't be happier!

Pinterest

My new obsession.
Pinterest.
Pinterest is a place to catalog the things you love.
I love a lot of things.

Before, my Reader was unorganized and a mess.

Now, it's not.

It was definetly worth the week I had to wait.

If you don't have one, you should.

Spring/Summer Wreath

I'm going to be making a spring wreath soon and I can't decide what kind... there's a

moss wreath with rosettes.

Then there's a hemp cord and flowers wreath

I wouldn't use daffodils. 

 

Lovely Cherry Blossom Wreath

 And I LOVE this one but it's not really spring..ish.

And then there is this one...

Yarn and felt rosettes.

Help me... 

PLEASE?  

They all have something I love.

Which is you're favorite?
