Well, this Monday will be Mike’s and my 2 year marriage anniversary. And, shortly after this… September 7th will be 8 years together. I’m SLOWLY working getting my wedding page done. So many photos I love from my wedding photographer, Craig Mitchelldyer.

But, this is not what I’m sharing today. We had a photobooth at our wedding. Yay! It was so fun. The weird part was that Mike and I never ended up taking a photo together in the booth! It was a crazy fun wedding. 🙂 Here are just a few of my fave photo booth shots from August 23rd, 2008:

AND, welcome all new friends from New Friend Friday!!!
