Ben was Emma's date to an SAI formal event a month into their relationship

GO HAWKS! 2017 Home Opener for the Iowa Hawkeyes. Quick photo op before kickoff.

An unofficial away game with zero duties but to have fun. Emma did, in fact, fall asleep in the stands at Ryan Field at this game.

The Great Minnesota Get-Together - the best state fair out there!

The #1 hot dog in the family! We brought home Ranger in March 2019 and he is the best little man we could ask for.

A summer of fun in Minneapolis after moving in together in February. This was at Basillica Block Party before seeing Kacey Musgraves headline that night.

Family vacation to Bayfield, WI - Emma was 100% convinced Ben was going to propose on this trip. Fast forward to...

It's a yes! We were getting ready to head out to walk around Gooseberry Falls State Park in -17 degree weather. Emma was laying on Ben's jacket, felt the ring box in his coat pocket, and told him he needed to ask before they left or she was going to throw up.

Closing Day on their first home!
