#TBT GTKY: 5 years ago

[annapunkalunka]

At first I was like... I was a freshman in college... Then I realized I had just graduated 5 years ago. Holy old.

H and I had just moved into our house in June and my brother got married in July. Other than that I was child free and going to a lot of concerts and festivals.

DH got an amazing promotion that year that now allows me to stay home with the kiddos.
My sister went on an 11 month mission trip. I missed her so much. Me and my best friend went on a girls trip to Florida. I started ministry school that year. Wow, that was a busy year filled with so many changes.

H and I were celebrating our first wedding anniversary and preparing to move away from Boston for grad school for both of us. It was a fun summer...we lived with my in-laws...

H and I were in the middle of our almost 5 year long distance relationship. He was stationed in CA and I was in PA. At the end of this month (the date I'll probably be induced actually), it will be 5 years since he left for his 8 month deployment to Afghanistan.

Well I had just graduated college, like I said. I was working full time as a new little scared-shitless-about-everything pharmacist.
We were working on planning our wedding for the following summer. That's pretty much it. Life was simple.

We were stressed out TTC #1. Went to Alaska for a trip.

That's about it!

I was working as a camp counselor, DH and I were still dating back then, and I was about ready to enter my senior year of college.

We got married and then moved to Iowa within a month of our wedding. I never thought we would be here 5 years later. Iowa is...not somewhere I ever pictured myself living. But DH got headhunted for an awesome job, I like my job and we're between our families (6 hours each way) so here we are!

Not gonna lie, I had to check my phone pics to remember what I did haha

I was one of the "off" phases with my on again off again bf (not DH). I was hanging with my bestie cousin and we took a girls trip to San Francisco and went wine tasting in Napa. That might be the year that I was a puma (not quite old enough to be a cougar) and dated/hooked up with a younger guy. Damn he was hot, that was fun.

5 years ago I found out I got selected for a great college scholarship to finish up the last 2 years of my bachelors. My H and I were living in our 1st apartment together! Life was very simple. I also got engaged in December 2011.

We'd just got engaged in June 2011 so I was right into wedding planning. I'd graduated from law school six months prior and was working full time and saving for my Masters. We were renting this weird semi-underground place and subletting our spare room to save money to this crazy girl who only ate sausages. Haha good times!

I was finishing planning our wedding!! 5 years in September!

We'd gotten engaged May of 2011 and I was heading into nursing school in September. The summer was spent working to pay for school.

We bought our house in June of that year and moved in together. A huge step for us. We were also semi-planning our elopement for November 11.

Summer of 2011...We had just moved into our house, I had just started the job I'm still in now, and DD was not quite 3. DS1 would be on the way that fall. Wow that seems like yesterday, and yet forever ago! I sure had a lot fewer wrinkles and grey hairs then.

We were in the process of buying a home. I started a new job. We were newly weds and hadn't celebrated our first anniversary yet. Was still performing Rocky Horror on the weekends.
