July 27, 2001. Dawne and I, dressed up under the evening lights. One photo smiling together, the next catching that little glance between us. Twenty-five years later, I still treasure those moments. ❤️
July 27, 2001. Dawne and I, dressed up and smiling together. Four photos that take me straight back to that evening—the flowers, the laughter, and how lucky I felt standing beside her. Some memories never fade. ❤️
