Remember how Kim Kardashian and Kanye West were longtime friends before they became one of Hollywood's hottest (and most talked-about) couples?!

Well, here is your photographic proof of the Kimye connection. And it's amazing.

In honor of "Throwback Thursday," the 32-year-old beauty took to Twitter yesterday afternoon and posted a photo with the caption:

"Throwback Thursday me & Yeezy 2008," Kim tweeted along with an Instagram pic of the reality star and her rapper beau from back in the day.

In the flashback snapshot, Kim is dressed as Princess Leia and ‘Ye is dressed in Stormtrooper gear.

Rocking the iconic gold bikini and swirled buns, the fashionista gazes at her future BF as the two film a musical skit together.

Although the pic is certainly a blast from the past, it seems to foreshadow their future, as there's no question that Kim and Kanye are very much in love and incredibly happy together as a current couple.

The good-looking pair just returned from a romantic Italian getaway—a surprise from Yeezy for Kim's 32nd birthday—and just yesterday, the engagement rumors started rumbling as Kim was snapped wearing a diamond bauble on her pinky finger.

But even though the cute couple is not engaged, Mama Kris Jenner admits she approves of Kim's main squeeze and wouldn't object if he became a member of the Kardashian clan:

"Kanye's such a great guy, that if anything along those lines would happen, he's already a part of our family," she gushed to E! News. "We adore him and think they make an amazing couple. We just want them to be happy."

Aww. So do we!
