New Name Ideas!

This blog needs a NEW name... any ideas? Anyone? I guess my attempt at flor-al-ogie, like anthropologie, has failed. And since I don't seem to be doing much with flowers as of late, it's time for a change. One too many times has someone called my blog flor-loogie! AAAHH! So I have couple ideas for new names... they are:



1. More Ways to Waste Time.... I think this is what Brett thinks blogging is all about.



2. Studio Eclectic... My way at living a balanced life!

I like refering to my life as a studio, lots of ideas in my head waiting to be created.



3. Studio Scarlett(e)... love red, love illiterations, and love Miss Katie Scarlett herself!



Anyone's ideas and thoughts would be great. I'm counting on my clever sis, Chal, to come up with some ideas... Sab and Ade ( The Dinner Belle- best name ever!) you're pretty clever too!

Thank You President Hinckley!

I've been so touched by others tributes to President Hinckley on their blogs I thought I would follow suit. My sister, Amberlee, had this picture up on her desktop and I couldn't help but smile when I saw it. I have to say that most of the pictures I see of him make me smile. I am so grateful that I am part of a generation that has been blessed by his life. What remarkable people he and his dear wife were. They both were such a great example of all things good. I was touched by his optimism, unwavering faith, work ethic, and the tender love he had for his wife. His legacy will stand strong and his influence upon our Church and the world cannot be denied. I will miss you President Hinckley!


Favorite Quote by Pres. Hinckley


“Anyone who imagines that bliss is normal is going to waste a lot of time running around shouting that he’s been robbed. The fact is that most putts don’t drop, most beef is tough, most children grow up to be just people, most successful marriages require a high degree of mutual toleration; most jobs are more dull than otherwise. Life is like an old time railway journey… delays, sidetracks, smoke, dust, cinders, and jolts, interspersed only occasionally by beautiful vistas and thrilling bursts of speed. The trick is to thank the Lord for letting you have the ride.”
