I found one more from that 2020 session, and I just could not leave it out. He looks so peaceful in this light! I love how his glasses catch the warm glow from the lamp in the background. It is funny how a single picture can take you right back to a specific day. Even though 2020 was a few years ago now, these photos make it feel like it was just yesterday. He has always been such a steady and kind part of my life, and having these captured moments really means everything to me. It was such a quiet, lovely evening.

I was going through some old files and found these two pictures of him from 2020. I just had to share them together because they both capture his personality so well! He has such a kind smile, and I love how the warm light makes these photos feel so special. 2020 was a crazy year for everyone, but looking at these reminds me of the quiet, happy moments we shared at home. He always knows how to make things feel okay just by being himself. It is so nice to have these memories to look back on whenever I need a little bit of sunshine.

I found this old picture from 2020, and it really brought back some good memories! I love how the lighting looks in this shot—it makes everything feel so warm and cozy. It is always funny to look back at photos from a few years ago. I remember feeling so happy and relaxed that day. Looking at this now, it reminds me that no matter what is going on in the world, it is important to keep smiling and find the good in every day. It was such a nice afternoon!

Here is a great picture of me and celebrating my actual birthday in Wildwood on February 26th, 2020. We got a huge sheet cake covered in glowing candles, and they even put a funny "26" on there for my special day! I was sitting at the table, and wore a black turtleneck for our cozy celebration at home. You can even see my birthday cards and a little bit of gift money sitting right next to the cake. It was such a fun and happy evening celebrating together, and my smile says it all.

snapped this picture of me in our Wildwood living room on February 17th, 2020, just a few days before my actual birthday. He decided to give me my present a little bit early that year, and as you can tell from that huge smile, I was pretty excited about it! He got me a brand new set of black and pink Cobra golf clubs so we could start hitting the course together. I even threw on that cute pink hat to match my new gear right away. It was such a fun morning when he surprised me, and I love looking back at how happy I was in this moment.

Here is a fun flashback to a back-to-school night, or maybe just a quick visit, in Wentzville back in 2020. I was wearing my favorite denim jacket and polka dots while snapped this picture. It is so fun to look back at these simple, everyday moments where we were just walking the school halls, checking out the bulletin boards, and being a part of our local community.

We are rewinding the clock back to a sunny day on the Emerald Coast in 2020! Long before our 2025 trip, and I were out here soaking up the bright sun on the beautiful white sands of Destin. It really seems like our fun tradition of amazing beach days and good vibes started quite a while ago.
