2 Year Anniversary in the HAMPTONS!

The day before our 2 year anniversary Ken told me to have the weekend free. Clueless as to what he had planned I was a little anxious for what was going to happen but really excited. This would be our first anniversary celebration because last year on april 26th we were busy graduating from college! Not a bad way to spend the 1 year mark but definitely not romantic or private as we were surrounded by family and friends all day. Oh- and the fact that we were moving the next day and selling all of our furniture and cars.

This year I craved some quiet down time but I did not expect for Kenneth to show up at the subway station where I transfer from work with bags packed. As we took a bus to the airport I started to doubt my previous guesses. Turns out the airport was just to throw me off as he picked up a rental car to drive us out to the Hamptons.

The following weekend was filled with lighthouses, peaceful drives (you forget how fun those are when you don't have a car), vintage stores and my favorite activity: House Hunting!! Although we are far from buying a home and we are very very far from buying a home in the Hamptons it is always fun to window shop.

My favorite house is this little cottage gem. Kind of like the one Aurora from Sleeping beauty stayed in with the fairy godmothers.

At the Easter Parade!

One of my all time favorite movies is Easter Parade with Fred Astaire and Judy Garland. Getting excited to show Ken this under-appreciated film I googled "easter parade" and found that New York still carries on the tradition. Every Easter morning, crowds gather along 5th Ave to enjoy, and showoff their easter frocks and most importantly their easter bonnets. It may not be as classy as it was in the early years, but today you will find some of the most imaginative and outrageous hats on not only humans but animals alike. 

"Happy Easter, To You!"

Isn't he just so cute!

Happy (belated) Birthday Trev!

You know that one kid who just seemed to have it all. He was athletic, good looking, well liked. Basically he was good at whatever he did with what seemed like little effort.

That kid was my brother expect that he deserved it all.
He was well liked because he was extremely kind.

He was a great athlete because he worked hard to perfect everything he was taught.
And was good at music, and everything else he tried because he had the ability to focus almost obsessively until he was satisfied by his progress.

When I am with him, he inspires me to have greater passion for the things I do and invest fully in what I care about.

Trevor was my favorite friend to spend time with throughout high school.
In college I may have not been ideal and ideal roommate, but I am grateful for the many times, almost daily that he would make me laugh and remember to loosen up.

Thanks for being such a good friend. I hope this year is a special one.

love you Trev
