"I don't pretend to know what love is for everyone, but I can tell you what it is for me; love is knowing all about someone, and still wanting to be with them more than any other person, love is trusting them enough to tell them everything about yourself, including the things you might be ashamed of, love is feeling comfortable and safe with someone, but still getting weak knees when they walk into a room and smile at you"

"Life's greatest happiness is to be convinced we are loved." ~Victor Hugo

Here's how it works.

McKenna, Coleman, Me

even though we see each other like weekly.

Emme loves me you can tell.

Me and Evan are cousins.

So we open PJ's on christmas eve...

And I love his Mom, Aunt Col.

We try to take pictures...

Evan ruins that.

"Twas the night before Christmas, when all through the house

Not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse.

The stockings were hung by the chimney with care,

In hopes that St Nicholas soon would be there."

"We do not grow absolutely, chronologically. We grow sometimes in one dimension, and not in another; unevenly. We grow partially. We are relative. We are mature in one realm, childish in another. The past, present, and future mingle and pull us backward, forward, or fix us in the present. We are made up of layers, cells, constellations.” ~ Anais Nin

This party, was my favorite.

50 dollar tip, plus photo booth pictures with my new best friend brad.

yeah it is fun.

this on is my favorite.

"pictures are the best of any form of recording something, because you look at it, and you remember everything. You remember where you were, how you felt, what you were doing, who you were with, and for just a moment it is like you are there again, reliving it. If i could i would photograph everything that happened in my life, with a time and date stamp, that way i'd never forget a thing."

I love angel tree.

If you have never done it, do it next year.

It really will bless you.

For the friends you don't know what to get,

each of you get an angel, and as a gift to each other buy presents for that angel.

After all you and your friends really don't need stupid gifts...

and it will be such a blessing to someone

"What if he's an angel sent here from heaven

And he's making certain that you're doing your best

To take the time to help one another,

Brother are you going to pass that test?

You can go on with your day to day

Trying to forget what you saw in his face

Knowing deep down it could have been his saving grace?

What if he's an angel??"

I actually used this today, and it made me rather happy because I stood outside, in the rain,

for a good 20 minutes just listening, and i didn't even get wet

"People are always saying not to let a rainy day ruin your week... i'd say if your aren't smart enough to bring an umbrella into the rain, the rain has a right to ruin your week."

Do you know how mant times this has happened since I started driving this car?

Two, both times my dad filled it up.

"Love is shown through simple things... like filling up your car or not eating your leftovers in the fridge."
