Our Wedding

We met before this picture at a trade show in Houston, TX. But this was the night that we found have a similar passion to act crazy on the dance floor. Gene lived in Tampa, FL and Tricia lived in Montgomery, IL. Two worlds apart so, it started very slowly. Long phone calls several nights a week. Then, a trip to MN....for work. He met the youngest sister...and Mom &amp; Dad. She really wasn't prepared for the parent thing but there it was, a ride to the airport. This turned into many trips to Florida and Illinois. Five years later, in 2019, he retired from the Florida Army National Guard, got a job offer allowing him to work in Illinois and there was no turning back. We have survived Covid (that was a great challenge for new roommates), raising kids and grandkids, new jobs, lots of travel. This event really is to commemorate how we got here. Ten years in the making. Also, a celebration to the future and everything it holds! We are so excited and proud to include our family and friends who have supported us along the way!
