Couple's Photo Shoot

Forgive my vanity, I love these pictures and want to post as many as I can. So this will be a series of pictures.
Kellie was an excellent photographer, and she caught all the moments I wanted. So, here's how it went down!
As I mentioned before, I had one idea of a special moment we could take pictures of. We blindfolded Brandon and took him to a walking trail by our house. He had not seen me in my hair, makeup, and dress combo, so I wanted Kellie to get his reaction. Here's a series of pictures showing his reaction.
It was very tender.
Next, we walked around the walking trail taking random pictures... there were some gems in this photo shoot. If I could I would put every single picture on here, but I can't and nobody really wants to look through all of them anyways.
Brandon dancing...

This face most likely means "what did you just say?"... I doubt I"m actually mad though.
I could go on... but I have quite a few more posts to post. Kellie is so great! I love these pictures!

A little Note from Murph to Giull

This note is for posterity, so that we can remember how our first married semester went.
Dear Giull,
I hope you know how proud I am of you for working as hard as you do every weekend. Even though my "sacrifice" of the weekend means I spend nights in the front room doing homework/crocheting/being a bum, yours is so much greater. I know you do not like sleeping all day on the weekend, and I start to get teary eyed every time I see you get dressed to go to work, but I know it will be worth it in a few years when we can have some savings for a hard time. You've already given up so much, even a weekend with your mom in Jackson, so that we can have money to pay rent and keep ourselves afloat while we wait for our financial aid to come in. I wish I had a job so that I could help you out and that you don't have to do this every weekend. You're so great, and I wish I could help you out more. Just know that every time you come home and the kitchen's clean, or there's homemade bread or cookies on a plate for you, I'm doing it to try and make your life a little bit easier. You're doing this, and keeping up your grades in school, and still being a great husband and putting my life in a higher priority than your own. I will make sure to work for you while you're in PA school so that I can repay you somehow. You're my best friend, and I love you for everything you do. We will have a great life someday because of the work you are doing for us!!
Love,
your Murph

Gabrielle's Take

Did I mention I have a very talented best friend? It's not like it was that long ago, but I do get nostalgic when I see these pictures. I was sooooo off in La-La Land that day, it was great.
She took pictures in our pre-reception photo shoot, which was taken at a walking trail that was just built by my house. It was GORGEOUS.




The rest was cheesiness.




LOVE IT!!!
