Grow Old With Me The Best Is Yet To Be...

In the spirit of Lovers day I thought it would be fun to take a trip down memory lane :)
Our scanner isn't working so I had to take pictures of pictures
2001:
Jeff and I met in seminary, just friends at first. I would tell him all about my boy crushes and he would consult with me on who to ask to PROM :)
We talked A LOT it was always so easy to talk to him.
We started hanging out a lot and had a very fun group of friends together, most of who we still talk to today :)

2002 Things started to get very friendly :)

Soooo cute! I love the pics of you when you were so much younger! I never realized that you guys got married a month before us and had Liberty a month before we had Jalynn....you beat us by a few months with the 2nd girl though.
