First Year Anniversary Photo Shoot!

So this post is like two months late. Oops.

I thought it would be really cool to have photos taken every year around the time of our anniversary. Which could get quite pricey but my wonderful and talented sister was nice enough to do it for a donation and lunch :)  A nice perk of having a large family.

We had a certain location in mind, but whenever we got there they were setting up for a wedding.....so we ended up taking them where we had gotten our engagement pics taken.  And they turned out really nice!

setup: me ingorning him and him looking sad.

i am almost laughing though

ahhhh whats mine is yours and whats

yours is mine ;)
