Mary & Jordan in Wayzata, MN

Mary met Jordan when they both played (he the bass, she the violin) in the Greater Twin Cities' Youth Symphony as teenagers. We went to different high schools on opposite sides of the Twin Cities but saw each other once a week at a rehearsal, says Mary. We went on our first date in the spring of the year we graduated from high school.
