Last night Maggie and I went to a jewelry party for a few hours and on our way home I called Barry. He told me that he had something to show me when I got home that would make me laugh. Turns out that he had turned on his old laptop from a zillion years ago and discovered a ton of old pictures of us.
As we sifted through the hundreds of photos, we found ourselves belly-laughing at some of the ridiculous things we did, wore or thought needed documenting. We were babies – just 21 years old – when we met and many of these pictures reflect our age. Lots of camping pictures, car trips, hikes and blurry anecdotes of our life together. It made my heart so happy to see us together, so in love.
We ended up staying up well past midnight, ultra late in our world, last night rehashing our past and celebrating where we are now. Of course we’re excited about our future, but we’re pretty dang happy right now. Seeing all the old photographs really affirmed for me the need that I’ve had lately to document our life and take pictures of us together. There will come a day when the photographs of today will make us belly-laugh and reflect on this time.
