Five Years Ago


When I look back at the early pictures of Mike and I my stomach still does that same intense flop that it did way back when, you know what I mean, when relationships are new and everything is so intense and amazing.

I knew that we would would always be together when those crazy butterflies in my stomach never went away, but instead flew up into my heart where their wings still tickle my insides to this day.

This picture was taken in 2005 I think. I do remember that it was the first picture that we took when we finally invested in a digital camera. Now it's hard to even imagine what day to day life was even like without the ability to capture the small moments that happen daily on a whim.

This is what our love looked like five years ago. It's pretty much the same five years later, just add a few laugh lines (and some makeup!) to my face and and a thicker beard to Mike's.

Thats a perfect picture Amanda.

And I know what you mean, life before owning a digital camera... how complicated photography was.

Amanda, I love this!! 5 years ago, Will and I were newly married and got all fluttery when we were together... five years later its the same. Some loves are just meant to be. I honestly believe that there are souls fated to be together and I'm glad you found yours!
