Adam and Amanda – Engaged!

Paul and I were great friends as teenagers.  He rather fancied me.  Although I was young and ditzy he waited for me, even when I left the country we continued to write to each other as friends.  He never gave up hope that one day we’d be together.  I’m so grateful.  We got married young, I was only 18, but it was pretty well one of the best things I’ve ever done.  So we’ve grown up together, had our babies and started this amazing journey into the world of photography.  It’s been a real blast.

Adam and Amanda remind me a lot of us when we were young.  Sweet and young.  They’re living in separate cities and looking forward to getting married at the end of the year when they will start their lives together.

They’re so cute together, it makes me want to dance a little jig.  But naturally, I won’t, as it wouldn’t be pretty.

We took a walk up the Wither Hills, where they had their first ‘date’.

Beautifulness.  A lot of beautifulness.

The view from the lookout, just as the sun was setting.  I really doubt that there’s a prettier place one could live.
