A couple of awkward farm kids start dating - right before Mark left on his European adventure! Distance makes the heart grow fonder (or something like that!)

Mark started making some regular appearances at the lake - earning his beloved nickname with the Miller Family

We took the leap and moved into an apartment in Elie. A true test of our relationship, as the world would very soon shut down, leaving us but 750ft of space and lots of time to hangout together.

A little Pre-Covid weekend away to Clear Lake with friends!

We quickly became each others designated wedding dates - with so many summer Saturdays spent celebrating love!

We moved out of our Elie Apartment - and took possession of our new home!!

Hosted our very first Family Christmas in our home! We can't wait to share our place for years to come!

Went on our first Holiday/Road Trip to the mountains for a Wedding, some golf, and good times with great friends!

We hosted the wildest 80th birthday party for Grandma Joan! Mark thought he would "never be a costume guy" - but I might be wearing off on him!

Date nights typically involve golf, a lake, a sushi dinner, or the cab of a tractor!

It's official - Mark popped the question!!

We enjoyed one heck of a wedding social, surrounded and supported by our family, friends, and community. We're so thankful!

Here's to the big day!
