Scavenger Hunt!
The Lord has blessed us already with over seven months (and counting!) of courtship, and six years (also and counting!) of a growing friendship. So the question is…….
Who can find the earliest occurrence on the ServenClan blog of Rebecca and Steven… in the same photo!
Post your guesses here. The winner gets to ask us a question which will be featured in an upcoming srloomis.com post! (Editorial rights reserved, of course!). So, reply with the date of the photo and preferably a link, and your question!
Update: so far Lynn is in the lead! The earliest photo has not been found yet, though.
Update: congrats to Ana Marie for finding the earliest known picture of us!

I have not watched your blog for near that long, so I am not sure when the first picture was posted of you together…The first one I remember seeing was here:

But I am sure there were others. I can’t wait to see the answer!!! And to hear more about your friendship.

Re #1: SarahLee, make sure you mention *which picture* :) But, there are several that both Rebecca and I are in the same picture, the Sellenger’s Round one for example here. But, that’s not the earliest :)

Re: Gillogley – no, Steven wasn’t at that wedding, although Rebecca was a bridesmaid. Good guess though..

Oops, I was going the wrong way through that month. I think this pic is actually earlier.
The Dinner lines are open.

Lynn that’s a good couple of finds, the earliest isn’t found yet though. You are in the lead so far!

Ana Marie, It seems you’ve done it! That is the first photo we know of with both Steven and Rebecca. Now, what is your topic or comment for a future post? – Thank you all for entering!

I’ve never won an online contest before. This is exciting! :-)
I would greatly enjoy reading the entire story of your courtship if time permits it’s composition.

Yes, like, how long have you been really friends. You mentioned you’ve known each other for 6 years. Were you semi-considering courtship way back then, or is this something that’s newer. Realize that in the telling, you can be an example to others of how to go about such a thing. That’s kind of what I’m looking for – not trying to be too nosey or get all the personal nitty-gritty – just wanting to see an example.

I’m a little late into this contest, but thoroughly enjoyed looking at all the pictures. My sister and I remember Rebecca’s family! Is that possible? Did they live in SJ when we did, back in the 80’s and 90’s?
