Flowers and blogs

First I want to tell you that I officially love to blog. I don't know why, but I guess It leaves me thinking creatively. I not only love to blog, but I like to keep up with people, I love to read what others are up to. I love getting on line and opening up my spot and seeing that I have comments, it is so fun. So, I thought, I don't really know who is really reading this... so my plea today with this blog is to ask you to take a second and comment on my blog so that I can see who is keeping up with me, and leave your blog information so that I can come and visit you!!

Second, I want to talk about FLOWERS. this Flower post is two part. I wanted to share this with you all. I was doing some research on material the other day and I ran across this site called Spoon Flower. This has nothing to do with Flowers, but it has flower in the name!

This is a place where you can actally design your own fabric and they will print it. It is a little pricey, but if you can't find what you are looking for on the market it is pretty awesome. I linked you to thier blog. The blog is really great, and thier flicker is really inpiring too. So here is the Link to thier home page.

Now on to real flowers, I love flowers, but not in the traditional sense.I am not a fan of roses and if there is something I don't like at all it is babies breath. I actually think I like roses, but I see them so much with babies breath that it makes me want to stay away from them. I have a friend who had surgery yesterday and I wanted to send her flowers, so I went to Flowers.com and while they are all too expensive for me to send, I fell in love with like 20 of the boquets. They are art! They truly are. So I decided to post the photos of my favorites, and I have been inspired to make my own boquet for my friend, (Target always has really great flowers) and I will post pictures of what I come up with as soon as I do it and take photos.

I enjoy reading your blog and keeping up with your life across the state. Grandma likes hearing about you as well. Aside from family blogs, my favorite blogs are "It's Lovely, I'll Take It!" linked from Kristie's site, and Failblog.org. Both of those give me a hearty laugh every day! Love, Auntie Linda

Sarah, I absolutely love keeping up with your blog. I check it out frequently. I enjoy seeing the life of another crafty youth minister and how you serve the Lord beside your hubby! I laughed out loud with my husband when I read him your post about how your students play pranks on you. We live in a parsonage right next to our church so...need I say more? Ha! :)
Hey- which NYWC are you going to this year? We are going to the one in Nashville.
Anyway, happy you are feeling well again. Hugs, Joanna
