My Valentines Beginnings. . .


It started in the Fall of 1995, when Justin and I met at Belmont University. We met through a mutual friend. We started spending a little time together and the more time we spent, the more time we wanted to spend. We were out into the wee hours of the morning driving around Nashville and talking and laughing almost every night. (We somehow made it to our 8:00am classes.) After hanging out non-stop for almost 2 weeks, it was time for Fall Break. Justin went home to Knoxville and I flew to hang out with a friend in San Antonio, TX. Justin asked my friend Kari to let him drive me to the airport, which I was very excited about. That 4 days away from him felt like an eternity for me. I could not wait to get back to Belmont to see him again! My friend Jayna was supposed to pick me up at the airport on Sunday afternoon and much to my surprise Justin was waiting for me when I got off the plane. This picture was taken at the very moment we saw each other! (Thanks Jayna!) It was the first time I knew I loved him. . .








In the Fall of 2003, we welcomed our little valentine into the world. Addie has been the greatest gift I could have ever asked for. She was our surprise and continues to surprise us every day. I love her more than I could ever express. . .



Happy Valentine's Day to all of you!
