After a few cute dates, a connection was formed and Tom and Henny started dating, not knowing how the rest of our lives were about to change.

Undeterred by the freshly shaven head, Henny decided to stick around when Tom came home for Christmas from Army Basic Training.

After Tom finished his Army training, he was stationed at Fort Sill, Oklahoma. Henny visited before Tom's unit rotated to Korea, and many polaroids were taken.

From the brilliant mind of Grettie Reifenberger, Henny made the unofficial Reifenberger Christmas card.

Henny makes the greatest sacrifice for love anyone has ever made; moving to Lawton, Oklahoma.

We added a furry friend to the house with Sky the mini Aussie!

It took a bit of time, but Oklahoma started to grow on both of us.

After a beautiful carriage ride, Tom asked Henny if she was willing to spend the rest of her life with him. As you're reading this now, it's safe to assume the answer was somewhere between "probably" and "yes".

We didn’t want to wait, so we married in a civil ceremony.

Knowing Sky needed some company, we got Drusa, the Cane Corso.

Thriving at Fort Sill, and excited for the next chapter of our lives!
