Our story began in two places: Oglala, South Dakota and Marquette University in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Before the service trip that would bring us together, our randomly assigned group of 12 met to get organized. Olivia was immediately drawn to Jack's gorgeous blue eyes and quiet, warm smile, while Jack first noticed Olivia's simple beauty and outgoing personality. We set out to South Dakota, and bonded quickly over the irony of spending our "spring break" road trip driving through a freak snowstorm. We were both kind of amazed how we never ran out of things to talk about through hours of building fences, re-painting a parish center and driving from site to site that week. When we arrived back to Milwaukee, we met for coffee, the next week dinner, and became "official" after a few more study dates. Since then, we have continued exploring our shared interests, which include hiking, Milwaukee food and abruptly stopping the car to get a better view of a nearby dog. We love telling our Marquette Story and we are overjoyed to soon be husband and wife!
