brad and i got married on cinco de mayo, seven years ago!  so i thought it was appropriate to post a picture of us from our trip to mexico last year.

brad and i met in high school, but we were not high school sweethearts (although i had a crush on him the entire span of high school!).  we came back into each others lives at the end of college and have been together ever since.  right after i graduated college we did a 3 month cross country trip.  we camped, we visited every national park and weird side road attraction in our path, we visited friends and family, we survied our car catching on fire, getting our bikes stolen, grizzly bears (or my fear of them), hiking to the peaks of the mountains, getting stuck in the great salt lake, and only being separated for bathroom breaks for 3 months....we decided that we still really loved each other after all of that, so we could make it through anything together.  today, brad is still my best friend.  i am a homebody, so he drags me out to fun things and i love him for this.  he is the most wonderful poppy (liza calls him poppy instead of daddy) that i could ever wish for my little girl.  he is my other half.
