Throwin' It Back {Young Love Style}

If by "throwin' it back" you think I'm talking about a glass of vino, you are correct but it's not even 10am and apparently boozing at work is "frowned upon". Say wha?



If you also think by "throwin' it back" you think I'm referring to "Throwback Thursday", you are even more correct.

And by "throwback" I mean, baby pictures of Beau and I. Circa 2006, to be exact. Holy whoa-we're getting old!

Before you enjoy, please disregard all chipmunk cheeks, mmmkay?
 
 
Disney World 2006
If I remember this trip correctly, this was the one where we went with his parents and they were nice enough to let us share their room with them. Broke  college kids = free hotel room. We had only been dating for a short while (mayyyybe 6 months) and were still considered "kids" which resulted in me sleeping with his mom (my now mother-in-law) and Beau sleeping on a rollaway cot. Oh the joys of dating! 
 
Halloween 2007
Beau and his friend James insisted on being Thing 1 & Thing 2 which consisted of a full face of makeup for the boys. Yours truly was the makeup artist and this was also the day the makeup titles "guyliner" (aka: eyeliner) and "manscara" (aka: mascara) were born. I went as a "Sexy Cowgirl Sheriff...whatever that means.)
 
Rodeo 2008
Well, hello extremely fat, yet tan, face!
 
Carnival Cruise 2008
The first, and most likely, the last cruise we'll ever take together. We both decided cruises really aren't our "thing". Especially those of the Carnival kind.

  2. I loved this post Steph! It's so crazy how different we all look in just a few short years! If you saw photos of Chris and I from 2008 you'd probably think we were a different couple!

  5. The first time I ever met Brandon's parents was on a trip to Pigeon Forge TN. We'd been dating about a month and thankfully they got a hotel room with a living room that had a pull out sofa so I didn't have to stay in the 'bedroom' part.

  18. Y'all are too fun! I'm scared of mine and Michael's pictures that started in 2006. They are pretty scary. Not going to lie. And I'm pretty sure I had that pink dress. We should wear it one day and be matchy matchy.
