A Wedding Surprise

Ok, it looks like I need to start posting something besides fun videos. But first, here's a fun video of a surprise wedding toast. I think you have to appreciate musical theater to enjoy, hence my husband's disinterest. I'm already plotting whose wedding I can do this at.

Reflections of Christ Exhibit

This is a slideshow of the Reflections of Christ exhibit on display at the Mesa Arizona LDS Temple Visitor's Center. It's a nice viewing for Sunday downtime, quiet time after a long day, or just a needed dose of perspective.

Photoshopped Beauty

Tonight we had a Modesty Fashion Show for the Young Women. I think the girls had fun with it. Before they walked the cat-walk we had two speakers: the bishop and a sister who talked about fashionable modest clothing. The bishop showed this clip, and I wanted to share. I hear it's a popular youtube video so this may be old news to you. I think it was a great thing to show the girls, and a good thing for me to remember. Enjoy.

Photo Blogs

In this "not-my-fault" society I'm going to partially blame my blogging addiction on others: my photographer friends. I love looking at their photo blogs, so I thought I'd share the view. I'm not sure how they will feel about being "advertised" alongside their competition. Since most of them live in different states around the country, that shouldn't be an issue.

Spring Quilt

With spring beginning to show itself, I put this quilt on our bed yesterday. This is an old family quilt passed down through generations so I rarely get it out. But yesterday it was saying "Use me! Use me!" Every time I walk into the room it makes me happy. I imagine that each scrap of fabric once belonged on a dress, a shirt, or an apron of an old-time family member. I like to explore the possibilities of what kinds of toys they played with or food they made wearing that "scrap." Maybe someday I'll make a quilt like this for my children to pass down. Maybe.
