Today you would’ve turned 48 years old.
2019 also will mark the five year anniversary of you going to heaven! How can that be?! I wonder what your days look like in heaven. I can’t even imagine.
You are so loved Doug! Your fun loving spirit was so infectious…even as a little boy! You were the best brother that God could’ve given to me.
Love you and miss you so much!
I celebrated a BIG birthday last week. Bernie and I spent it in Biloxi and NOLA. Here is our trip through my lens.
Biloxi, MS | Back Bay of Biloxi
New Orleans, LA | Sites around NOLA
Food around NOLA. The Famous Cafe Du Monde and a really cool restaurant called Meauxbar in Vieux Carré. I had scallops with a squash gratin. Yum! Is was a great birthday dinner!

Here we are. Another year has passed. Let’s be honest, this year has flown by! Year after year time moves at warp speed.
January 19 was the day my brother was born. I wish that I was throwing a big party for him. Making him his favorite foods. Celebrating him!
The last birthday we celebrated was four years ago. He went off chemo that month because it wasn’t doing it’s job. It’s one job was to shrink the tumor instead it was sucking the life out of Doug.
Doug relied on his faith and in the journey that God had for him. I think we knew what that journey may look like we but prayed fervently that a miracle would take place.
So here I am, four years later still trying to understand why. Why Doug? Why our family? I guess I won’t know this side of heaven.
Today will always be your day! You would be 47 years old today. I will always celebrate you and what you meant to me. Today you celebrate in heaven and I can’t even imagine!
I will love you always! Happy birthday kid!
