Happy Birthday Ty

Today would be Tyler’s 23rd birthday, which just seems unreal to me. I always ask myself, what would he be doing on his birthday… for my 23rd birthday, I went out downtown with tons of my friends and had a very memorable night! Would he be doing that? Would he still be off in college or traveling the world? We will never know, but today we will spend the day remembering the happy times and laughing about all the funny times. We will take the time to sit through a horribly awesome kid movie, because that’s the Tyler we remember, theĀ lovableĀ 8 year old who rejoiced about movies and the little things in life. I will smile even though it hurts because I know that everything happens for a reason. I miss him every day but today is a happy day to really appreciate those 8 years I had being his big sister. Happy Birthday Ty, we love you.

If you’re a new blog reader, you might be a little lost.. you can read more here and here… some day I’ll share the whole story about Ty.

Friday Inspiration

In one of my 5 Faves I mentioned the book “Water for Elephants” and how incredible it was, as in I lost myself in the book for a few days and completely fell in love with it. When the trailer was released for the movie, I watched it repeatedly because I was THAT excited for it to be released. Last weekend went by and I didn’t get a chance to get to the movies to see it, but Monday I met my lovely friend and bride-to-be Tina for an afternoon movie… Water for Elephants. As I watched the movie I had that feeling of complete love and admiration for the it, more than I thought I could. I honestly felt like I did when I saw Titanic 8 times (yes, 8 times in the theater) when I was 13… I could go see this movie over and over without getting sick of it. The other day Green Wedding Shoes posted an session that was inspired by the movie, oh how I swoon over this. The fashion, the style… ahh I love it. I thought it would be the perfect thing to share on this finally sunny Friday afternoon. Make sure and head over to the full post on Green Wedding Shoes to see all the photos, these are just a couple of my favorites by the talented Marilyn Nakazato Photography.
