Kyle Rocks My World

Kyle and I spent a lot of the day yesterday at Spinmaster, he had some final things to do at work before he heads off to L.A so I went along and took advantage of their state of the art printer and went through all my old photos and while he worked I got to print off a bunch of them. Looking through them I found these two older pictures. I fell in love with them all over when I saw them.

The first one brings back so many memories when Kyle and I were just dating while we were in college living on dorms. In this pic he is carrying my laundry up the many flights of stairs which is just the type of stuff he would always be doing for me. I fell in love with him for those simple things. I remember back in college we all had little mail boxes and he would leave me little encouraging notes and thoughts of love with treats. I loved that time in our lives but even today he always blows me away with going that extra mile to make sure my world is nothing less then perfect and I am so grateful for that.

The second picture is one of the longer chapters in our life. This one has Kyle looking under the hood of our Taurus, our very first car which we revamped and did so much work on it so we could have Independence. We were on our way back to B.C in this pic when something was going on with the Taurus that made our trip home a little bit slower! Kyle worked on this car so much to keep it running from the time we were dating to after we were married. We needed it to survive and Kyle worked so hard to keep that baby running! We have so many memories and a lot of them were in that car!

This picture is kind of in relation to the one above because I am in the Taurus and I'm looking at myself in the mirror that Kyle built in the car for me so I would be able to put my lip stick on and fix my hair when it was dark out. This picture was taken also in relation to the car because I was sitting in the parking lot of the infamous bone yard on a rainy day. You have to understand, back when Kyle and I just got married we had no money, we were broke and the Taurus always needed fixing. So Kyle would go to the bone yard which is full of old Taurus's and look for parts, take them out and then use them to fix our car. We spent so much time in the cold, muddy, dirty bone yard! This time Kyle must have been getting something that was easy because usually I would be out in the bone yard with him.

I just love looking back on these old photos they spark so many memories and bring me back to revel in the fact that back then everything was so easy and there was never a time when things were all work and no play. At this time in our lives we had so little, we didn't know how we would pay for gas and laundry and we had no extra money to eat out or do anything fun but this time in our lives was the most fulfilling ever because we relayed so much on each other.

The Story of a Prince and a Girl who Dreamed of finding Her Prince.

Once upon a time there was a young woman named Ruby; she lived in a far way kingdom where only the stars in the sky could light the way. The kingdom was tall and made of stone. Inside, it had all of the finest linens and tapestries with winding stair cases, golden mirrors and exotic flowers that stretched the kingdom’s stone walls. The kingdom was surrounded by a large creek bed and had a large wooden draw bridge outside the tall black iron front gates. Beyond the kingdom were many forests, pastures, rivers and hills.

The young woman lived in the kingdom with only her two servants Nigel and Jasmine. They had been with Ruby ever since her mother gave birth to her and have cared for her and loved her since the great royal war that took her family tragically away from her. Years had past since then and Ruby was a young woman now. Since the great royal war she had not seen another person beside her servants. The lands had been deserted as other kingdoms were destroyed and abandoned. No one knew this kingdom existed. It stood in a far off place that only one deserted over grown pathway in the forest would lead to.

Ruby spent her childhood growing up playing with all the animals in the forest, she had names for all of them and would spend her days dancing in the pastures and walking along the creek bed throwing stones into the water. She was content those days as she lived free and enjoyed every tree, every stone, and every pathway near the kingdom. She loved her home but she missed her family and many times she felt alone.

As Ruby grew older she began to stop playing in the pastures and instead she spent her days walking along the creek bed dreaming of finding love and not being alone anymore. Every night outside her balcony she would spend time looking out into the stars and making wishes that one day soon a wonderful man would find the unmarked path in the forest that would lead him to her kingdom.

Nigel and Jasmine were very old now; Ruby took time to care for them and tended to their needs. She would gather food from the garden and make them food to eat and get them blankets to make sure they were comfortable when it was cold. She was not sure how much longer they would live but one thing she knew was how much she admired they’re love for one another and she hold that in her heart for as long as she lived.

It was a warm fall evening; the leaves from the trees were lightly falling as the sun began to set. Ruby was standing on her balcony in her long white silk night gown. As the dark sky began to shine, a light breeze bustled against her gown and her long brown hair blew lightly in the wind. She stood with her hands on the balcony ledge and wished to the stars like she had so many nights before singing” Star light Star bright bring my prince home to me tonight” She stared up into the dark blue sky and began to talk more to the shinning stars.

Just as she was looking up into the sky, talking to the stars a man was following the pathway from the forest that leads to Ruby’s kingdom. He was beginning to approach the edge of the pathway he had began journeying on earlier that day and was about to step on to a beautiful white shiny stoned pebble walk way that would lead up to a draw bridge and to Ruby’s kingdom.

The young man had been travelling for months only eating what he could find along the pathway. Henry was a prince from the golden city of Persia. He was on an expedition when he was captured by rivals and taken to a far away land where he was imprisoned in a place he did not know. Months ago after many nights planning Henry escaped while the guards were sleeping. He thought he would be able to journey home by recognizing land marks but once he had fled the guards he realized that he was further from home then he ever imagined and much to his dismay he did not recognize any of his surroundings. He had been following the sun in hopes of finding his way home. Each day he walked further hoping that one day the pathway would lead him to his family.

Earlier that day Henry had been walking though the forest with large green bushes and fruitful trees around him when he saw a small unmarked pathway that was ragged and old. There were no fruit trees, only old tall trees and an old pebble pathway that seemed run down and abandoned.

He was going to continue to walk on the pathway he had been but something caught his eye as he walked past this abandoned trail. Henry saw a small red ruby attached to a ring lying in between some wet leaves. The sun was shining on it and it glistened and shinned at him. He bent down and lifted the leaves around it away and dusted the ring off and looked at. The ring was prestigious and fit for a princess. He thought about continuing on the main pathway road through the forest but he was drawn down this unmarked pathway. He wondered if this ruby red ring belonged to someone. He put the ring in his pocket and began to walk along the jagged unmarked pathway. He noticed that there were no markings along this pathway so it appeared that no one had walked this pathway for many years.

To Be Continued…
