The photography of Leilani Wertens is nothing short of breathtaking. She ventures into estate sales, not in search of vintage deals, but to capture the past, the silent stories that lie in the homes and possessions of people passed. At first, as an avid thrifter, I was drawn simply to the vintage decor and the thought of finding such amazing retro loot on the cheap! But then I was seized by the stillness of the discarded items and abandoned spaces. It’s calming, yet the mystery of each moment is gripping. I could stare and wonder for hours.

[Editor's Note. Please go ahead and queue up the song at the bottom of the post. Think of it as the post's soundtrack.] Sarah and I want to keep everybody interested in our wedding even though it is more than a year away. So, we thought we’d tease you a little bit. Well, perhaps tease is the wrong choice of words. Sarah and I would like to give you a sneak peak at what we’ve been up to.
Birthdays. Another excuse to make a wish list. But not just any wish list. A special wish list that’s compiled only once a year. On my birthday! (Full circle, people). It’s like a window into my soul.
Now, these aren’t necessarily things you haven’t seen before. These items, unlike most things, have stood the test of time in my mental list of things I’m convinced I need. Nor are they things I expect to receive on this holiest of days (August 9th, mark it on your calendar). Unless you have, say, $145 to drop on an original Joetta Maue embroidered piece for someone who probably doesn’t deserve it (within the last year, I think I’ve forgotten the birthday of everyone I hold dear. so make that definitely doesn’t deserve it). There is one thing on this list, however, that I DO expect. And if you’re the one who’s supposed to get it for me, you know who you are (Brian). Everyone else, let me introduce you to Pickles, the 1 1/2 year old domestic short hair above center. She is beautiful, and she will be mine! Her name is Pickles, for god sake. We were made for each other.
