Five years

Five years ago today Ben and I married. To celebrate he took me to Portland City Grill for dinner and Gerry Frank's Konditorei for dessert. It seems like the five years have flown by and I feel so lucky to be married to such a wonderful man.

I was going to put up pictures of our wedding day but those are all tucked away in an album safely secured so I figured instead I would post pictures of the trip when Ben proposed.

I was studying abroad in Spain and Ben was at Fort Leonardwood, MO at basic training. When he completed basic I bought him a ticket so he could come visit me.

December 4, 2005 in Sevilla, Spain. This is the exact spot where Ben asked me to be his wife. It overlooks the gardens of the royal grounds.
Ben loves this picture of us on a bench in Sevilla enjoying Spanish tortilla sandwiches.

Here we are in Lisbon, Portugal.

We also got to visit Granada, Spain.
