Our first visit to Wimberley and Canyon Lake last February. You can check out this view yourself from the top of Old Baldy!

Celebrating at the most recent Baldino wedding

Celebrating at the most recent Harris wedding

Steve is thrilled at the prospect of even more wedding photo shoots to come

Happily engaged! Right after Sarah said yes (we're pretty sure she did anyway... we do know she cried!). Steve proposed at the family cabin where Sarah's parents got engaged about 37 years prior

Surprise celebratory engagement lunch in nearby Cuba, New Mexico with Sarah's parents and brother

Steve designed a beautiful ring with a sapphire (for Sarah's favorite color) and the diamonds from Grandmom Baldino's ring (Photo cred: Elson Harris, brother of the bride and token Gen-Z'er)

Celebrating in Santa Fe! The absolute only time Steve will drink champagne is right after he gets engaged (more for Sarah)

Enlisting Gus to help announce our engagement!

There may or may not have been a little bribery involved in the shoot

Taken on the night we met! Not pictured: Steve who was waiting (somewhat) patiently for Sarah and her friends to finally make their way to meet up at the next bar as promised

Sarah's first Bad Lucy show (the first one she went to on purpose at least) was on Best Friends Day. Naturally then, Carrie is pictured instead of Steve.

Riverwalk in San Antonio in our early dating days

Celebrating a younger Steve on his first birthday that we were together with a show at the Moody Theater

Steve getting hazed on New Years 2019 through the Annual Harris Family Gingerbread Building Competition... sorry we're not sorry.

Grilling in the snow (Believe it or not, this was not hazing. He wanted to do it!)

For Sarah's birthday in 2019, we took a big trip to Santa Fe and Taos. Easing into old age with some fancy cocktails at the piano bar. You only turn 31 once after all!

A stop at the Rio Grande Gorge. It looks like Steve isn't quite accustomed to that bright New Mexico sun!

Build your own wine and cheese-tasting in Santa Fe

Tourists in Fort Worth while attending Steve's Marine Corps Battalion Reunion in Fall 2019

Shiners at Shiner Saloon for Steve's birthday in 2019

Speaking of birthdays... Happy Birthday, Marines!

Amazing dinner at Lonesome Dove when Steve's parents came to visit

The holidays in 2019 took us to New Mexico and Delaware. Overpriced, pre-flight margs and bloody Marys!

Photo before Christmas Eve Mass in Albuquerque because we color-coordinated so nicely with the door

Yet again, Steve seems unprepared for the bright (December) New Mexico sun

On to windy Wilmington and the Hagley Museum

Sarah's first WaWa

Sarah's first Philly Cheesesteak #jimswins

A selfie on Santa's lap at the pop-up Christmas bar in Philly

Highlight of 2020: It took Steve about 15 seconds to change, but those 15 seconds we accidentally matched were among the best of Sarah's life

When in Canyon Lake, don't forget to drink a Devil's Backbone beer at Devil's Backbone Tavern! We had a great Valentine's date seeing one of our favorite local musicians there.

Another photo from our Canyon Lake trip - a quick kiss from a friendly local goat

Getting ready for a little two-stepping at Broken Spoke Dance Hall

"Find you a man who loves you even though you always leave all of the cabinet doors open..."

Just before quarantine, we went took a camping trip for several days in West Texas. Beginning of trip selfie!

Setting up camp in Caprock Canyon. Not pictured: the bison who later crashed our campsite

Good thing we brought a fearless, former Boy Scout with us!

Windy, sunset selfies

Packed up and ready to hike

Steve was overjoyed (no really, he just hides his emotions well) to discover his favorite John Wayne movie is based on true events at Palo Duro Canyon

We call this one "Boots over Palo Duro Canyon"

End of trip selfie! A little more tired and a lot more dirty.

Surely we weren't the only ones who did a boxed wine, blind taste test during quarantine?

If you don't have a selfie in your mask while waiting for your takeout, did you even experience a worldwide pandemic?

Our favorite quarantine activity was adopting our sweet, lazy Gus

Gus's first swim, where Steve did the vast majority of the getting wet and swimming thing

Take time to smell the wildflowers in the park

Day trip road trip pals!

No car ride is complete without some snuggles

On the road again! On our way to California for Sarah's brother's wedding, we made a pitstop off of Route 66 (aka I-40) at a working ranch in Tucumcari, New Mexico

Sarah and her two favorite fellas

Sedona (where our relationship was sorely tested by the very poor signage)

Long hike and beautiful views at the Grand Canyon

Steve learns to drive a tractor on the Harris family farm!

A trip to Annapolis in October for Steve's brother's wedding and a run around the Naval Academy to see Steve's old stomping grounds. Oorah!

Sarah's game face eating crab the first time (with thanks to Brett and Judy for the excellent coaching!)

Post-race selfie this November (Steve didn't actually run, but he did babysit Gus for the duration of the half and thereby earned his free beer)

For our first Thanksgiving together in Austin, we got way too big of a turkey

And ate way too much of said turkey

Our first Christmas tree (also far bigger than necessary... at least we're consistent in overdoing things)

Over the holiday break, we became accomplished woodworkers and built ourselves a couple of pretty cool desks. Feel free to start sending your custom orders our way!

All in all our first holiday season together in Austin was lazy, peaceful, and very special

Celebrating the New Year with pictures in the park behind the house (Photo cred: @jdonthesnap)

Much of the shoot was spent trying to get Gus to look at the camera

If you can't beat 'em, join 'em
