A Beautiful Talk

One of the first things I want to post on here is a quote given to me earlier today.  It is from the talk "Beauty for Ashes" by Bruce C. Hafen

"They taste the bitter, that they may know to prize the good." (Moses 6:55)  I think this is a really good way for us to look at our trials here on earth.  Something amazing would not seem so amazing to us if it happened to us everyday.
"the hope, which blesses us with the state of mind necessary to deal with the gap between where we are and where we seek to be."  "The gift of hope offers peace and perspective"  Sometimes I feel like the things I really want are so far away, that's when I need to stop and realize what I have right now.
"The truth is not that we must make it on our own, but that he will make us His own"

I know that my savior lives and that through him and only him we can come to live with our Heavenly Father again.

Why blog?

I've decided to start a blog mainly to keep all the things I love in one spot.  I'll post: recipes, quotes, scriptures, pictures, crafts, and whatever else I find that interested me.  This is basically for me to combine facebook, pinterest, weddinggawker, and foodgawker.
