Happy Birthday Kyle Two z's Two t's

Emily: What a year with my husband! As I said in my vows, I love how Kyle is always so certain. When faced with the extremely heartbreaking and unexpected job loss, Kyle immediately set out to figure out what was next for our little family. I’m so proud of how Kyle handled the transition and was determined to get back on the life track he is always determined to achieve. It’s been exciting and fun to start a new chapter with him in the Northeast, and I am thankful he is so certain about loving Kevin and me. Kyle’s sometimes difficult to read, but ultimately, he is extremely loyal to those he loves, and I feel very lucky to be the VIP of that club!

Trey: It's hard to nail down one thing about Kyle, but I love that he is unconcerned with what others think of him. He doesn’t try to be anyone he’s not and he does or says what is most right to him in the moment. He is honest with himself and others. These are all traits that translate to success and that I am constantly trying to get better at. He also stayed later in Austin for our couple's shower when he needed to return home for work. That meant a lot to Lucy and me. Thankful for you, Kyle! Happy Birthday!

Lucy: One thing I love about Kyle is that he will never settle for less than excellent. In cooking or his job, Kyle deeply understands his value and the value of others. Kyle has a knack for holding out for the right timing and then taking an ordinary opportunity and turning it into something extraordinary. Although an overall challenging year for the Cazzetta newlyweds, I am so grateful for this quality in Kyle that led E&K to begin again in Greenwich! 

Taylor: Needless to say, Kyle and I are very different from one another, but don’t they always say opposites attract? I’d say that we are a good example of this. Somehow, we managed to find each other in this big world. It was fate that brought us together. Kyle even accepted membership (ceremonially, but don’t tell anyone) into the Universal Life Church for me. I’m glad to be friends with Kyle, and he could easily have said the typical brother-in-law relationship was enough for him, but in typical Kyle fashion, he said, “Fuck that,” and here we are today. I’m thankful for this friendship.

Sally: Happy birthday to my first brother, Kyle. You know I love you very much.  I’m impressed with the way you and Emily have navigated this year. It wasn’t easy, but you rolled with the punches and ended up in the perfect place for you both. I love how you constantly visualize and plan for the best possible life for you and Emily. We can’t wait to visit very soon.

Page: I love having Kyle as my son-in-law. He is full of surprises, keeps in touch, and looks for ways to make life fun for everyone. He loves a good project, like putting a puzzle together, cooking a special meal, or landscaping a yard. And mostly I love how much Kyle adores Emily and wants to make her happy. We had a fantastic visit to Greenwich, highlighted by an amazing evening at The Yale Club. I can't wait to spend more time with Kyle in July and ongoing. I am especially looking forward to some golf in the Northeast when the time is right. Happy BD, Kyle. Make it a great year!

Cathy: Kyle, this has been a turbulent year for you, and I appreciate your determination to secure another job, fortitude to keep a positive attitude, and commitment to Emily as her partner through it all. Always know that Page and I are here for you. You have a kind and giving spirit, and I love how you enjoy cooking and gardening—two of my favorite interests. Have a wonderful birthday, and I look forward to seeing you soon!
