Say Yes To Magic

Welcome to 2013! 

May the new year stomp all over our "to do" lists and fears and from the pulp of that crushed material bring forth something more awe-inspiring and precious than we ever dared hope for ourselves and the sacred world we live in. 

My motto for the year? I like "Say Yes to Magic". Catchy, right? When I told Evan that, he texted me back, "I thought it was Say Yes to Evan!" Evan's magic so I think it still holds. His motto for the year? "Bonus Time!" Because the world was supposed to end in 2012. Brings a smile to my face every time I think of it. And that's more magic. 

But the best this year has offered up so far? Check out these two:

That's my newly engaged brother, Mike, and his fiancé, Rachel, in matching glitter t-shirts on New Year's Day. Here's them without the glitter: 

Still so fabulous! And here's them in oil paints:

I couldn't be more thrilled by this news-- just so excited to be in their lives as they live theirs' out together. More magic. You see how we're already awash in the stuff and the year's just begun?! This is the start of something beautiful.
