3 years

Yesterday-Derrick and I celebrated 3 years of being together!  We were best friends first, had a quick stint of lovers next, and lastly I finally said yes to being his girlfriend (after being asked every day once he admitted he liked me in February).

Man oh man how time has flown by! Sometimes it seems like YEARS longer and then other times it feels like it's been a few months!  Check out the pictures to see some fun chronology of our relationship!

*Excuse the birds...this was in Romeo and Juliet-where Derrick and I met and became best friends. 2007*
