After knowing each other for a few years in college, we reconnected at a friends graduation party in Minneapolis during the summer of 2017. We began to spend time getting to know each other during the course of the summer and started dating August 28, 2017. This was the start of a journey that we knew would last a lifetime. For the next two and a half years we spent a majority of our relationship long distance. Although this provided many difficult challenges, it also gave us many opportunities to strengthen our love for each other. Some of these challenges included job searching, grad school, only interacting via facetime, and also covid pandemic. Through it all, we relied on God to keep us and strengthen us for the better. We now know that despite our differences God has made us to be with one another for better or for worse. Soon we will tie the knot and have all of you there to witness and celebrate the wonderful blessings that God has bestowed on us. Can't wait to see you all there.
