Way back when-sday


The Blogivers


Yes, that's right, friends, this is my first ever Way back when-sday post! As many of you know, my sister (the hot babe in the pic above) started WBW a while back, and although many people have since joined in on the fun, for some reason, I have yet to participate.

I can't guarantee that I'll become a WBW regular (because let's be honest, I can't guarantee that I will do anything regularly when it comes to blogging), but I'm here for now and hope to be back in the future, so hopefully that will suffice for now.

As I have mentioned before, Brian proposed to me on Christmas Day (2006), so Christmas is twice as special to us. In honor of that, today's WBW will take you on a little stroll down memory lane through all 9 of the Christmases that Brian and I have shared thus far. Enjoy!

Christmas 2011 at the ranch 

 Christmas 2010 at the ranch

 Christmas 2009 at Brian's youth group's tacky sweater Christmas party

 Christmas (morning) 2008 at the ranch

 Christmas 2007 (our first married Christmas!) in Santa Fe

 Christmas 2006 in Austin (just an hour or two before the proposal, little did I know!)

Christmas 2005 in Austin

Christmas break 2004 - sorry, apparently we didn't take any Christmas-y pictures that year? 

And now for the one that you've all been waiting for (aka: the worst picture ever taken of us):

Christmas break 2003... this was taken outside of Brian's parents' house in Richmond just a couple of weeks after we started dating. I am certainly not looking stellar myself, but I think you'll all agree that Brian's hair is the star of the show in this picture...

Merry belated Christmas to you all!

FINALLY! Thanks for the WBW love. And this was actually your 9th Christmas together, just so you know...

Haha I remember taking that very first photo...little did I know I'd be looking at it again 9 years later. But I'm glad I am :)

These were so fun to look at! I wish we had such good record keeping!
