Happy Belated Birthday, Kevin!

| family, New York City

I can not believe my little brother is 21!! Ahh, how did this happen! Just over a month ago my brother (who I will always refer to as little even though he now towers above me at 6’4″) celebrated a big birthday.  His birthday occurred during his college finals and I was not able to celebrate with him, as he was studying in Washington, D.C. and I was working in New York.   Kev is one of my favorite people in the whole world and I am unbelievable excited that he is living in NYC this summer while working at his summer internship.  Saturday evening was our first time out in a long time and 15 of you liked the photo of us on Instagram, but that does not even begin to illustrate how much fun the night was!

Kev and I are tremendously close, and when I asked, he graciously agreed to let me post about him on my blog!  (This is noteworthy because the majority of men in my life want to stay very, VERY far away from this sparkly blog of mine).  Kevin has been my main man, besides my father, for the better part of the past two decades, and here are a few great photos of us from across the years.

The first photo is from my fifth birthday, the second is from my high school prom, 
and the last photo is from my 21st birthday a few years ago. 
Siblings are something really special and growing up Kevin was my “playdate” every day.  I learned how to properly throw a baseball, to play hours on hours of N64, and that cowboys and Indians can be fun even if you are a girl.

I love you Kev, HAPPY belated BIRTHDAY
and I can not wait to have a great summer with you in New York City!
