life of charmings

love, family, happiness

January 4, 2011 in beach· flashbacks· husband· story of our lives

what a difference 7 years make

then.

now.

then: december 2003. just turned 17 & 18. dating 6 months. i loved my new pink purse & cried that trip knowing he’d be off to college the next year. his winter tan remains a mystery to me [guess it was all that soccer practice after school.]

now: december 2010. 24 & 25. married 2.5 years. love my black boots. celebrated the ending of my own college career. we still like each other. wish i could show then brittany the now picture.

time really flies.

    Oh this is adorable! You are beautiful in both photos…and they are both just so sweet! I'm totally scared to look photos of me and my husband when we were first dating…time can totally make a difference! What a cute idea, I love this post.
