Jakob taking a nap+nothing else to do=blogging!

Last night I was going through pictures of my courtship with Danny. The joyous memories of he did this or I acted like that. The memories flooded my brain and then I asked myself, have we really only been together for 4 years? (5 including the dating) Where have the years gone?

I love looking back at the old pics and remembering the awkwardness of our blossoming relationship. We had some great times together-and still do. Some of the pictures are sweet and some are just plain ol' amusing because we look so young! Sometimes I wish I could go back to the pre-baby days, or the so-in-love-it-hurts phase. Don't get me wrong, we still spend time together minus the baby, and still love each other "with every fiber of our beings", it's just....different. A good different, but different none the less.

I wanted to see how much we changed over the years, so I did sort of a timeline of us from our beginnings up to now. (or vice versa) You would think in only 4 years not a whole lot changes....but, the pictures prove it: different.

(this pic was taken before we even started dating, thanks to our friend who set us up. He photo shopped Danny into a picture of me next to the Nauvoo temple. We were destined to be together!) July '04

Okay, so we don't really look all THAT different. But it was fun, right?
