This week’s Monday Listicles topic is love. I’m going to take the lazy route with it and feature pictures. 10 pictures I managed to scrounge up of me and Lee over the years. Some are pretty crappy quality because they are so obviously pictures of pictures, but still kind of fun, right? I’ve told our love story on here a couple times before, so I won’t bore everyone with the story then, but I don’t particularly enjoy pictures of myself, so I don’t often include them. But here they are – I probably should have left a couple off, but I honestly only managed to find 10 easily available digitally (thanks for letting me steal from your flickr, Charlotte).
My senior prom, previously featured on this blog. The rest won’t necessarily be in order, but I know this is the earliest.
Around the time of my high school graduation.
In my dorm’s kitchen my freshman year of college.
On the way to…somewhere. With Lee’s family.
Cheesy, right? I’m not sure what’s up with that watch, either. Lee gave me a gold watch for my high school graduation that I still wear, so I’m not sure why I wasn’t wearing it.
Just hanging out. With my giant legs.
With the best dog, Randy.
Nice face, right? I’m talking about mine, not Lee’s. I probably should have just left this one out and said nine pictures was good enough.
In the dark. But I think we look happy if you look really closely.
This was just last year, the only recent picture of us I can find without kids. I can tell that we’ve been talking about The Lion King a lot recently because when I look at this picture “Can You Feel the Love Tonight” starts playing in my head.
Linking up with Stasha for Monday Listicles:

I love this so much. It’s so sweet.
Thank you for archiving so many family pictures, Charlotte!
This was a great spin on the listicles. Wow! You guys have been together a long time! Happy Valentine’s Day to you and Lee (and the kids too)!
Thank you. I was going to feature all the loves in my life, but I feel like I feature pictures of them all the time, so I thought it would be fun to be a little different this time.
I’m so impressed at how far back you both go in each other’s lives! High school sweethearts — so sweet. (-:
Thanks, Ado! If my math is right, this is our 18th Valentine’s Day as a couple. More than half of my life!
The last one is my favorite
so sweet.
Thanks – my 10 year old took it, and it was a lovely surprise on the camera.
I love this! Ten pictures of you two together. How sweet!
Thanks!
Love those pictures. I realized when I was doing this I hardly have any pictures of just the two of us – recent ones — as in the last five years. Now a days it seems like we are never alone together. Even in bed we have an animal or two. Have a wonderful Valentine’s Day.
I pretty much had none of just the two of us for the 10 kid years! Happy Valentine’s Day to you.
AW! Those high school pictures are my favorites. So cute!
Thanks, Greta
That’s really cool that you have all that history together–you two got to grow up with each other!
We did – and fortunately we still like each other
What wonderful pictures! It was fun to see your love timeline!
Thank you
I thought the picture with the watch was maybe an “engagement” picture for the newspaper? But I can’t see if you have your ring on or not!
It might have been, but I don’t see my ring. I know we had pictures taken a couple times like that to give to you and Josie as gifts, so it may have just been one of those.
How sweet are those pictures? It’s funny now, because I can’t find any recent pictures of just us with out the kids either.
I don’t even have that many whole family pictures with the kids! My aversion to being photographed has increased over the years, so I know that’s part of the reason.
You two have been together a long time! So nice to get a glimpse of your life together. It’s so hard to find photos of us too – most of our photos are of the kid!
I like pictures of the kids better anyway, but it’s nice to have a few of us.
So awesome to look back on those photos and think of the history between you two. Highschool through kiddos and the last being the demonstration of what’s clearly still so there….”love.” Thanks for coming by my blog too, love this post!
Thanks – we do have a lot of history
I love that you have such a history, and I think it’s so awesome when young love turns in to eternal love. So inspirational.
Thanks, Jen
We thought it was forever love way back then, but doesn’t every teenager? I’m glad we were right.
You guys were soooo young when you met. So cute too!
Thank you!
You two are so lovely together. And you barely changed at all since high school
Happy Valentine’s day!!
Thanks, Stasha – and happy Valentine’s Day to you, too!
Those are awesome! Happy Valentine’s Day!
Thank you, Stacey!
Awesome pictures! You guys are so cute together! Happy Valentine’s Day!
Happy Valentine’s Day to you, too!
So great to see the pictures over the years.
Thanks
