If I were just a little more tech savvy, I’d put together a great slide show to commemorate this occasion. One set to music. Yeah, that’s what I’d do.
But since I’m not, I won’t.
Instead, I give you a link to Dan Seals’ One Friend, one of the songs we had sung at our wedding and a sentiment that’s even more true today than it was then.
And, of course, a whole bunch of pictures.
As you can see, I was quite excited for my motherto take a picture on my first date. Soooo embarassing at the time!
(And yes, of course I love the fact that I have it now!)
Mark’s senior prom, 1995. Yes, all of that hair is mine.
It was quite the trend at our high school to get professional couple photos taken.And by “professional,” of course, I mean Sears. This was the fall of 1995.
My junior prom, 1996. My hair is pulled back in a banana clip,because I just could not handle another prom night of bobby pins and hairspray.
Because everyone looks beautiful in sleeves like that.
My dorm had a formal dance. Spring 1998.
My roommate decided to lay on the floor to take this flattering photo.
The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society black tie ball,
one of many work functions Mark has attended with me in the last decade.
The Three Amigos: Mark, Smitty and me at the Coors brewery in Colorado.
Honest, we don’t drink that much beer. But apparently we document each occasion when we do!Smitty, Mark and me at a concert a few years ago.
The Three Amigos (and a few others) partying like it’s 1999 . . . in 2008.
And a family was born. October 8, 2007.
Another hospital photo. Because we were there for a long time.
Christmas 2007. We still weren’t sleeping much then.
Summer 2008. Life was getting fun right around this time.
Christmas 2008. Mom and Dad had a great time figuring out the new tripod. Annalyn was not amused.
Thanks for taking this walk down memory lane with me. Have a great weekend!
awww… i love the walk down memory lane! it’s so funny to see you guys so YOUNG! :-)
and i’m so happy to see that i’m not the only one who’s incredibly pale! lol!
Awww… love the old fashions! ;) And I love that T-Dog took the picture from the floor. I remember that well. :)) Congrats again! :)
Oh, and pale is beautiful. I may be biased though. ;)
How fun is that?! Love the photos, and the reminiscing. I remember your wedding; it was beautiful & very exciting to get to be there. Happy 10-year anniversary! (how is that possible?)
Those pictures are wonderful!! And that last one of Annalyn… what a great expression. Kind of like, “can we be done now?” Thanks for sharing that fun trip through your lives together. :)
I love that song! And it actually worked out perfectly with your “slideshow” :-D Thank you for sharing…so sweet! :-D
Thank you, guys. It cracks me up how young we were!!
