Adding to

I've had this beautiful picture of the Savior in my home for years.  This past week, I found some great things to add around it.  Seagull Book had the Living Christ and The Proclamation on sale for $20.  The frames coordinated perfectly with the frame from the pic of the Savior.  I loved the numbers from Pottery Barn and wanted to use them in my home.  In order to balance the numbers, I matted and framed the quote "Journey to Higher Ground."  It was a talk given by Joseph B. Wirthlin a few years back.  I loved it and wanted it to be our family motto.  Now it is incorporated in the right room next to the right inspiration.  This room has always been my sanctuary, and even is more now!

Preserving the Past

Fall is my favorite time of year to take family pictures.  When I print the new ones, I am sad to cover up the old ones.  So I found a wall in my home to create a collage of each year's picture.  I had four of the frames already, and found one at Target and one at Roberts.  Each Tuesday, Roberts does double coupons so you can get two items for 40% off.  Also, IKEA has great inexpensive frames.  I simply went with the same brown wood hue for them.  Now, I have a spot to see how we've changed over the past six years.
