elevator mirrors / dressing room mirrors

I wore an outfit today that I thought would make Taylor proud, but it's too matchy-matchy for her liking. She gave me some tips - taupe scarf and leather belt would be better. I agree that would be better. / it's kinda slow today

Well, I am almost (my driver's license doesn't say it yet) officially Mrs. Leslye Phillips. And Taylor is almost (she hopes to move in this weekend) an official Brentwood, TN resident. Changes.

Taylor accepted a job in Franklin, TN at a brand new Anthropologie store in the city square. She is so excited - brand new city...  brand new job... brand new store... brand new home.

I just have a brand new name - same home, same city, same job. But things will be different there with a husband in my life. New dreams... new memories... new adventures.

gift from a friend / God's gift

L - Nikon / T - iphone

Today, a year ago I became engaged... on this day next week I will be Mrs. Leslye Phillips. It's been a year of preparing but there will be sudden changes. Suddenly Taylor is having to move away from Atlanta. She was offered a job at Anthropologie’s brand new store in Franklin, TN and will be moving on the very day I will be returning from the honeymoon. Gone before I get home - having to move alone. This makes both of us sad. Suddenly I will have a man in my home. There will be major changes for both of us and we won't be close by to help each other with the adjusting. 
As I look at these two photos of ours I see images reminding us to stay strong. The rock that my good friend blogger, Elaine, sent to me is a perfect quote to hold dear "Write in your heart that every day is the best of the year."  I do believe these changes will be positive growth for both of us.

If you care to visit, I, Leslye, have another blog - AutumnSun where I ramble around different paths and pleasures of my own.
