First picture together, pre-dating, NYE 2017. Fun fact: Josh convinced the girl on the right that he had donated his cerebellum to the children of Nigeria for research.

First house, First Hanukkah !

Visiting the Angas in Michigan after getting engaged. Josh and Chad are cousins, but really grew up as siblings. I had heard a LOT about him by the time we met.

Josh looking out across the Atlantic toward home, from the Aran Islands. Co. Galway, Ireland.

We can't wait to add our wedding date padlock to the fence at the Augusta Canal Locks!

Baby Hadley.

Baby Lincoln.

Doing all the "first home together" stuff...well kinda. This is what happens when Michelle has to work on Halloween and leaves the pumpkin carving to Josh.

Date night in Baltimore. Josh picked one of the best steakhouses in town...so Michelle could order salmon.

Note to self: crop Brad out of future wedding pics so he doesn't steal the show.

"Hey could you get a picture of me looking cool?" Betsy and Stefan's wedding in Bath, England.

Canoeing on the Santa Fe River. Before dating Josh, Michelle had to get Bailey's approval (she passed with flying colors). We miss you, sweet girl!

Look, there are going to be lots of pics of the dogs...we're dog people.

Car rides with Mom!

Christmas with Josh's family in Jacksonville...they got cropped out, it was Josh's fault.

Find yourself a girl who isn't afraid to try new things: like trap shooting. Turns out, she was surgical with that shotgun [get it? *wink wink*]

Josh's first (and ONLY) date to The Wise's legendary Derby Party.

The Executive Wedding Committee visits our new home for the first time (Michelle's mom, Josh's mom, and Aunt Patti)

We didn't meet playing ultimate frisbee...but we would have never met if it weren't for the frisbee group!

Gleninchaquin Falls. Beara Penninsula, Ireland (we hiked all the way around to the top of that range in the background!)

Med school graduation!! Family introduction baby steps: parked Josh all the way at the end next to Aunt Patti and see if he comes back...

Josh's *other* big day!

When you want to impress your girlfriend, you get the Head Basketball Coach from Oxford University to give you a tour of London.

First holiday card family picture!

We're not sure if we caught Lincoln protecting our Hurricane recovery food...or trying to raid the cooler.

Roomies!

Michelle isn't the only professional napper in the family.

Lots of wedding practice, thanks to our friends!

We look like we're enjoying Kensington Gardens...but really we're just happy to have evaded the Lebanese Embassy Security.

The real test of a relationship: can you travel together? She didn't throw me over the Cliffs of Kerry in Ireland...so that was a good sign.

...when Josh realized that he had competition as the #1 man in Michelle's life.

When Michelle first moved to Augusta (from Baltimore) and a 5 hour drive felt like she was SO close, by comparison!

Lynsi and Mike's wedding, Josh's first REAL opportunity to spend time with the family (he passed the test).

...looking for trouble to get into.

We weren't actually riding bikes on Neptune Beach, we just wanted to be extra safe.

The closest that Michelle ever got to celebrating NYE with Josh, his brother, and sister-in-law in Durango, CO.

Off to see cousin Tula!

Unsolicited help unpacking our first home.

On the way back to Bmore after Katie & Chris's wedding: "Hey, have you ever been to Philly? ...want to!?"

Pre-tailgait...GO GATORS!

Michelle was in residency in Baltimore while I was recovering from surgery. Mom Tillman sent this pic to let her know that I was doing fine and everything was back to normal.

Furbabies

First house guest! Those color swatches are still on the wall...two years later.

Resting up to cause more trouble.

That's snow!...at our house!...in GEORGIA!

Tallulah Gorge(ous)

Winter in Baltimore *INDOORS*...we didn't grow up in the same climate.

It looks like the picture is out of focus, but that's how we all look at the end of a family dinner with the Tillmans.

Supporting Michelle in her first...and last...race (Thanks Sho!). The coach in me says that if she could complain that I was taking a pic, then she could be running faster.

Match Day, when we found out our relationship would be long-distance. Around then, the only time we could regularly spend time together was during our daily 5:30am workouts...can you tell?
