7 Years!

Juan and I have been married 7 years today. You know I love trips down memory lane, so please enjoy these vintage pics of the two of us:

 We're 16 years old here. With Julaine. This is one of my all time favorites. It just reminds me of the good times we had as best friends. I like to joke and say he always liked me and I was a "mean girl" to him. And all that is true, except somewhere in there we also became close friends and we had the best times together, and he was someone I could count on and confide in.

 We're 17 here, right after we started dating.

 
 I'm 20, he's 21. We were engaged.

 
 And these are the 2 pictures I used to carry around throughout his mission. Isn't he good looking? The couch pose is now hilarious, but I love it. Oh, young love.

For our 7 year anniversary, we celebrated with a Zipline Adventure! Neither of us had ever been before and we both are up for trying new things! In reality I just had to remember all the times I've yelled at the crying girls on the Bachelor for being so afraid, and tried not to be a hypocrite. After the first line, it was really just FUN and it was fun to be scared.


 We got the Bride and Groom helmets since it was our anniversary!

 It was just beautiful over at Lake Travis in Austin.

 And if you can see, that is Juan and I coming in side by side. Juan asked the guide if there was any way we could zip while holding hands (as a cheesy joke). She said maybe if we had go-go gadget arms, haha.

It was such a fun date and I'm so glad I didn't have to dress up to go out to dinner. I am so not a dressy person. We ate at Longhorn Steakhouse and it was delicious.

If it wasn't suppose to be "all about you guys" I would demand you take down that photo of us. You look so young and I...look like a butterball!! I was just thinking yesterday about your anniversary. What a fun idea, and to get bride and groom helmets. It look like a blast!

How can I ever forget the "mean girl" phase, and how you ever got so lucky that he stuck around through it! just kidding, you are my best friend and I would never have one that would have been a mean girl... (that was a joke)! Anyways happy anniversary to my favorite couple!! You guys are so awesome and so lucky to have eachother. miss you

I seriously thought at first the zip line pictures were of you guys on your honeymoon. You guys look so great and young...happy anniversary a little late. It is nice to be married to your best friend.
