Moving without Mom via today.com

When Ben Nunery and his wife Ali got married in 2009, they had just closed on their new house, so they took the opportunity to take their wedding photos in the empty home.  Just four and a half years later, after Ali’s tragic death from cancer at at the age of 31 in 2011, Ben and his young daughter Olivia got ready to move to a new house, but they wanted to say goodbye to the old one. So they recreated these special photos from Ben and Ali’s wedding day, as a way to remember the happy times.

Waterfalls are coming out of my face???

i hate that guys think that every girl is an insecure wreck that feels bad about herself and stuff so theyre like “you’re beautiful” on signs and say shit like “every girl deserves to be called a princess” like we’re not a fucking charity

  Reblogging for those of you who have the nerve to say, “I don’t need feminism.”

These are your sisters.

Sometimes you just need that extra brownie or that extra bowl of pasta or that extra slice of pizza. Sometimes you need a day of laying in bed watching your favourite tv show over and over again with a bowl of ice cream. Sometimes you don’t need to go for that run or go to the gym. Sometimes the unhealthiest option is by far the healthiest option. Nourish your soul and mind.

it’s so cute when you talk to someone a lot and you notice your phrases slowly slipping into their vocabulary
