Our Wedding

Lorenzo and Kara met their freshman year of high school and became closer through mutual friends and started dating their senior year.

High School Sweethearts

They both went off to Sam Houston State University where they completed 4 years and graduated with their Bachelor's Degree. Fun Fact: Kara has been working as a pediatric ER RN and Lorenzo is almost halfway done with medical school now!

Eat Em' Up Kats

The couple adopted a dog while in college and he has been spoiled rotten ever since. He is the perfect little piece to our relationship and is loved unconditionally. Fun Fact: Palmer is named after Palmer Highway in Texas City after his kennel card read "Freeway". He was thrown onto the freeway and neglected as a puppy before we adopted him.

The Golden Child 

Lorenzo proposed on their 6th dating anniversary at The Aquarium in Kemah. Fun Fact: Their wedding date will be their 7th anniversary together!
