So sweet!!! I love it. You will have so much fun. I love how you wrote him 104 times on his mission...weekly right? I think I would be embarrassed if Shawn counted how many times I wrote him. I think I mailed them weekly, but had multiple letters in each envelope. :) What a beautiful couple you are. Have fun!
