For those who have known Mike and I for a long time we met in the Air Force Reserves in 1981. Like many friendships, we were fortunate enough to stay in contact throughout the years...

Our magic really began in 2008 when Mike invited me to the cottage with his family to help out with summer chores. After Mike recognized my vast handyman skills, I began to get regular invites to the lake as an extra hand. In between trips to the lake, we started to hang out more often. And then something happened...

After much hemming and hawing we decided to share the news with our families that we were dating. We've had some many wonderful moments, working on my house, dining out, family gatherings, and then he gave me a drawer at his house...

In 2014 we took a leap and moved in together. We haven't been separated a day since. Fixing up the house, traveling. trips to the lake and the blessings of Grandkids have made life exciting...

As they say, time flies when you're having fun, and in 2023 we got engaged. We are so grateful to have each other and I am so excited to become Mike's wife.
