May 30, 2012

3 years ago today, we stood in a meadow in front of most of our friends and family and declared our love for each other. It has been a long road, but we are better travelers because of it. Here’s to many more roads to take!

I saw this on someone’s Facebook page, so I figured I would steal it and put it here. Enjoy!

17.) Where did you go on your Honeymoon?

We didn’t do a honeymoon. We moved to Texas two weeks after the wedding. 5 months after the wedding we headed to Belize for a week for another friends wedding.
