How We Met

May 28, 2017

Tim and Danielle met at Tree Town Country Music Festival on Memorial Day weekend. Danielle was running through the crowd and ended up right in front of a very tall, handsome man that knew EVERY single word of Alan Jackson's songs. They spent every minute together over the next few days of concerts and majority of that summer before heading back to the University of Iowa for school. Go Hawks!

Long Distance

2019-2021

Tim graduated from the University of Iowa, took a job for IBM, and made Rochester, MN his home for the next few years. Danielle started dental hygiene school and moved to Fort Dodge, IA. Those years consisted of lots of FaceTime calls, long drives and short weekends packing every minute full of time together. You can't forget all the trips Tim made to the Iowa Central Dental Clinic to be Danielle's patient for hours on end!

Their First Home

2021-2024

Tim and Danielle got their first apartment together in Eagan, MN. Danielle graduated from Dental Hygiene school and took a job at Denmark Dental and Tim was working remote for IBM. They enjoyed taking Archie for long walks, golfing, and finding all the tasty restaurants and cocktail bars. They loved being close to friends and family. Many weekends were spent in Des Moines, Clear Lake, Hager City, Bass Camp, or Chippawa Falls.

The Big Move

June 2024

We're excited to share that Tim got a big promotion at IBM in New York! After lots of thinking, he and Danielle decided to go for it. They packed up their place in Eagan and made the 22-hour drive to Stamford, CT, with both their parents tagging along. Now they’re loving their new home and enjoying lots of trips to NYC. They are exploring everything the Northeast has to offer. Even Archie is having a blast in the city!
