Happy 25th Birthday Tyler!

Today, December 28th, would have been Tyler Scott Elder's 25th birthday. I love him and I miss him every day. I believe that I will see him again and it will be a wonderful reunion. I look forward to that day.
To celebrate My Handsome's birthday I went to lunch and a movie with my dear friend Kjersti. I can tell you with 100% certainty that Tyler and I would have spent this day at a movie, so I thought it was the perfect way to spend the afternoon (although I highly doubt we would have seen "Did You Hear About the Morgans?" like Kjersti and I did).
My first official date with Tyler was to see "Bourne Identity" at Jordan Commons in June 2002. The last movie we saw at a theater was "Superman Returns" a couple days after he returned from his mission in July 2006.
Tyler had a passion for movies and video games and was able to drag me into loving those things as well. I often tell people with pride that I was an avid Halo player (albeit not a very good one) and it's fun to watch their reactions.
Tyler taught me to love things I never thought I would love, and he had an awesome and sometimes obsessive passion for anything he got involved with.
I love that boy forever!
