Seven years ago today, Justin stood on the steps of his dorm and asked me to be his girlfriend.

And (almost) a baby later…
I love him more than ever before…
I was only 19-years-old when we first met. It seems so long ago, but I’m so blessed that I’ve literally grown up with Justin by my side.
I shared this post on Facebook and Justin’s reply was SUPER adorable.
He wrote: “Wow. I can’t believe that was 7 years ago. We were 19!!! If the past 7 years had that many adventures and memories, I can’t wait for the next 70 years (yes, we’re living past 90)! I love you.”
I am so incredibly blessed.
And thankful.
And happy.
Tonight, we shall celebrate by letting the pre-baby makeover continue…I am getting pedicures with my best gals! Then Justin and I are making pasta with homemade sauce!! I’m going to show him how to make homemade garlic bread using hotdog buns, cheese, butter, and garlic powder – a childhood staple of mine. I’ll be happy to supply you with the recipe – just message me.
Oh, it is love.
Much love,
Ashley
