B is for the bond that can never be taken away.
R is for the refuge that you have to me each day.
O is for the oath that we will always remain as friends.
T is for the truth upon which everything depends.
H is for the honor it is to be your brother.
E is for encouragement that we give to one another.
R is for the road that we have traveled down so far.
S is for security, for when I need you, there you are.
This I took of Dakotah & Matthew on a different trip to Bear Lake. I used the character filter from VP & added the poster edges effect.
