The Story of Us

Whew this blogging thing is a little more difficult than i expected it would be. Every time I plan to sit down and post something, i get distracted with something else. Anywaysss as I said in my last post, I wanted to do a little "about us" post to share the story of how we became The Harbours.

Blake and I both grew up in Round Rock and went to school together from 1st grade all the way through graduation from high school. We were friends when we were younger and still had mutual friends as we grew older but there never was any sort of romantic interest. (except apparently in 5th grade when, after looking back through my old diary, apparently he was #5 on the "boys i like" list) After high school, i went straight to Baylor and Blake went to the University of Kansas.

Fast forward 2 years. I was meeting my roommate on campus for lunch when, gasp, who did i run into?! Blake Harbour. We exchanged numbers and there began a twice a week lunch date in between our classes. Not long afterward, we officially became a couple.

This is one of our first pictures as a couple. We look so young!

We got engaged February 17, 2008 in San Antonio, TX while we were on what I though was some sort of "conference" for the company that he was interning with at the time. Little did i know that was all a big scam and really i was about to experience the greatest surprise of my life!Here we are right after getting engaged on the balcony of our hotel room overlooking the Riverwalk.

We spent the next year and two months planning our wonderful wedding (which was exactly what we both dreamed it would be!). We were married on April 18, 2009 at the Winfield Inn in Kyle, TX. Luckily, after a very rainy wedding eve and a rainy wedding morning, the sun decided to show its face and the weather was perfect. And to top it off, apparently it's good luck to rain on your wedding day?! Who knew! "The Kiss" at our wedding

And now after many exciting steps, here we are, married almost 3 months. A wife to my best friend, who was right there all along.

So here is to a journey full of laughter, fun, and romance.
