A special celebration and treasured memories

We had a FABULOUS time this past weekend! First celebrating a very special lady’s birthday, my mom!!!

We had a great time with family and close friends… grama even made her famous “money birthday cake” lol it was awesome!

Here’s to many more wonderful years … and more importantly to all the amazing memories we made this evening. A friend of ours messaged us this weekend to let us know that not only did her family suffer the loss of her grandfather, suddenly her father passed away very soon after.

Our hearts go out to them as their pain would just feel like torture right now. A true reminder of how special memories, even the simplest memory that at the time may not seem like it is “that much” one day will mean so much more. Never take any day for granted, spend your time with people who not only you love and respect, but those who love and respect you back. Enjoy life to its fullest, work hard, reach for your goals and dreams!

A very important reminder for the photographer in me… please take photos! Whether it is with your phone, your point and shoot or a DSLR… I remember each time we have lost a loved one, it has been a very harsh reminder to capture more memories. We may no longer have our loved ones, however those memories within a photo will live on forever with many more stories and generations to be told!

Thinking of N, G and mr T tonight… hugs to all of you!
