It was just about this same day three years ago that Drew and I started dating. It is amazing that it has gone by so quickly! It seems like that was just yesterday, and then again it seems like we’ve always been dating. I can’t even remember what my life was like without Drew in it. Anyway, I am also amazed at how far we have come and how much we have changed in the last three years. Three years ago, I was a junior in high school and Drew was a senior. High School Sweethearts. 🙂 We lived back in our hometown and went to the same high school. I remember him waiting for me outside of my classes to carry my books for me to my next class and I remember riding with him to lunch everyday. Almost every morning after I got out of early bird (speech team in the mornings), I would have to drive to his house to wake him up for school so he wouldn’ t be late. I remember the next year when I was a senior and he was a freshman in college at SIU. I remember worrying about colleges and scholarships and where we were going to be the next year. Things worked out wonderfully and the next year I was a freshman at Tulane and he was a sophomore at UNO and we both moved to New Orleans. Now I’m a sophomore at Tulane and he is a junior at UNO. We are still rolling right along and loving every minute of it. Exploring the world together, seeing new places and meeting new people.  I love thinking back at all the memories and moments that we have shared, all the places we have gone and all the people we have met. We’ve been worlds apart (literally halfway across the world from each other one summer when I was in Europe and he was in Hawaii) and we have been right beside each other. Its funny how sometimes we are complete opposites and sometimes we are just alike. I’m so incredibly blessed to have such a wonderful person to share my life with and I can’t wait to see all the things that God holds for our lives in the future!  🙂 I am so lucky to be in love with my best friend!  I love you so much Andrew! 🙂

Here are just a few pictures that I found of us over the last couple years. The ones in the upper left corner are the oldest ones and the one in the lower right corner is the newest. The others are somewhere in between, mostly older rather than newer.  🙂
