We were at a concert, & laughing over how hard it is for me to hold the phone for a selfie when I accidentally hit the button & got our favorite picture EVER!

Our 3rd date, out at Wiseman Brewing Co in Winston-Salem. This was our very first picture. I, of course, broadcasted it immediately because I was already smitten by this point.

Only a week into dating, James was quickly realizing there was no fighting off my new addiction to selfies. This started our new hobby of smooching selfies.

We quickly learned that James' beard scruff & my face do not like each other (it was a good test of how deep James' commitment was as my face molted for about two weeks!)
