Catch up with Part 1 (aka the cute ones).

Hive, I share these with you because I will be sharing them with our 300 guests, but please, be gentle! These are tough years for many kids and the Hermit Crabs were no exception (although I think Mr. Hermit Crab always looked adorable :D). All pictures are personal photos.

It was the mid ’90s. You wore oversized t-shirts too! (I hope)

My Bat Mitzvah, the pinacle of awkward; Mr. Hermit Crab solidifying his love of drums

Starting to come into our own!

We have outgrown our ridiculously awkward stages and we’re finally into more suave, if not sassy, territory. Enjoy the continuation of our little journey as we finish high school and enter college!

Ah sixteen, seriously, clear the road!

So, it’s a little bit hard to see in this picture, but freshman year of college, I mostly kept my hair braided with different colored streaks in it. It was awesome!

I was 19 when we started dating! (Mr. Hermit Crab was 21)

Ah, the college years

My college graduation - go Violets!

On a trip to Toronto, Mr. HC got to see his beloved Stanley Cup

We love animals…

At my bridal shower… ok so I’ll be a week shy of 25 at the wedding, forgive me!

Mr. HC and his stack of med school books he was only too happy to get rid of. And me, well, I’m still over a year away from 26, so this is what I came up with - what do you think?

Whew, that’s all of them! This project was definitely a labor of love, but I will use these in many different ways, but you’ll have to stick around to find out how. Coming up next will be a tutorial on how these babies came to be!

How was middle school for you? How about the mid-’90s? Anyone escape un-awkward?
