Michael turns 25

Its hard for me to wrap my head around him being halfway to thirty now. I feel like we are both so young, and I forget he is actually a bit older than I am.
I would like to say we did something exciting and celebrated together, but it was actually a very busy day for us both. He got a new promotion at work and has been moving into his new office and getting everything organized. I took the day off to hang out with him, and just helped him get everything together.
We got him a new pair of work boots for his birthday gift, since his old ones are literally on their last threads. But all in all it was a good day and we got to spend it together.

"Happy Birthday to the most amazing man I know. You work so hard to take care of us, and put up with my craziness. My life is so much better now that I have you, and I look forward to spending every day for the rest of forever with you."

My Best Friends Wedding

Today my best friend of over 13 years got married to the love of her life. 

 

It was heartbreaking to be a thousand miles away on such a momentous day in her life. But I am very happy for her. There are couples who think they are in love, and then there are those that Know what love really means. These two know what love really is and they have found it in each other.

I wrote Kesley this morning:

"To my unbiological sister. Today she's getting married to the love of her life and I can't be more happy for her! From little girls in art class, to old married woman you have always been my BFF and always will be. It breaks my heart that I can't be there with you today, but know that I am there in spirit and will be wishing you well from afar. You are simply beautiful and I can't wait to see what the future holds for you both. Congratulations Mr. & Mrs. Cheers to love that will last an eternity!"
