Kitchen Quote - The Final Frontier

I realized I am behind on several posts. We actual decided on a kitchen quote that wasn't one of the original options. The ones I really liked, Matt didn't and the ones he liked weren't my favorite. One afternoon I was reading in the Ensign and saw a quote I liked. I showed it to Matt and he liked it too. Then "voila!" We had our winner. We put it up about a month ago, I just forgot to take pictures and post them. Sorry the pictures aren't the best, but they give you an idea. It says "Pray as though everything depended upon God, Work as though everything depended upon you". I think I'd like it better if it was a little bit bigger, but it looks way better than having all that white space!

Kitchen Quote Part Two

A couple weeks ago I mentioned I was trying to find a cute quote or something I could do in vinyl lettering on my kitchen wall, above the cupboards. I really appreciate those who gave suggestions! I work with a lady (the wonderful Tena) who has a vinyl lettering company and she is already working on some things for the baby's room for me. She is the best! So I don't need ideas on where to get the lettering done, but thanks to those who have already made suggestions. Now comes the fun part...narrowing it down to one. I'm trying to decide what I like best, so here are some options. Please vote in the poll on the right and let me know which one you like the best (please only vote once).

Option one:
We thought about doing words, kind of like a family motto, spelling our last name. Each word would be a different font and separated by a bullet. "Confident * Appreciate * Relax * Respect * Optimistic * Laugh * Love"

Option two:
Use president Hinckley's 6 B's. Again have each word a different font and instead of bullets separating the words, have bees. "(bee) Grateful (bee) Smart (bee) Clean (bee) True (bee) Humble (bee) Prayerful"

Option three:
Just for fun, use lyrics from Hank William's song "Hey, good lookin', Whatcha got cookin'? How's about cookin' somethin' up with me..." And have a music note on each end of the quote.

Option four:
Kind of a cheesy quote, but would work well in the kitchen. "The most indespensible ingredient of all good home cooking: Love for those you are cooking for"

Option five:
Has nothing to do with the kitchen, but I love this quote and I think its funny. "Blessed are those who can laugh at themselves for they shall never cease to be amused"

I'm still open to more options as well if anyone has any brilliant ideas.

Birthday / Kitchen Quotes

I had a very nice birthday yesterday, thanks to everyone who sent me texts and called! Matt made me french toast for breakfast and he gave me a spice rack (which I've been needing/wanting forever) and then at work we had bagels and chocolate milk for my birthday treats. Then Errin and Tena took me out to a yummy lunch at Pizza Factory. When we got back, WesTech was having pie to celebrate reaching some goals we had accomplished. We were so full, but took a piece for later. Matt was at school most of the day, but he had some beautiful flowers sent to me at work that made my area smell really nice. Then after work, we met my parents for dinner at Market Street Grill. When we got home, we basically just crashed. It was a long day of work, but everyone made sure it was nice.

On to a completely different topic...I need help! In our kitchen, above the cupboards, is a really long, bare white wall. Its too short to hang anything there, because it would hang down in front of the cupboards, but it runs the length of half my kitchen. So I want to do something with it because its a lot of plain white space (which I can't stand). I think some vinyl lettering would look really good, but I can't find a quote I love that would work well in a kitchen. It needs to be a longer quote, since it has a lot of wall to cover. Any suggestions? I've looked at tons of sites online, but am wondering if anyone has any better ideas than what I found?
