Our Wedding

Our first date - 10 YEARS AGO. We are so lucky to have grown up together — from high school graduations, college graduations, starting first jobs, getting into Dental School, moving to a new city, + of course getting our puppy - Theo! We can’t wait for this next chapter of our lives.&nbsp;
