Personal

Laura & Matt got married in the midst of the pandemic and, while we all live with leftover trauma from those years, they not only planned their wedding (and had to rearrange several times!) and got married, but then just days before Laura gave birth to their oldest, Matt was diagnosed with COVID-19, which meant […]

Family & Kids

It’s always so much fun to see the Ohloff family!

Engaged

In the summer of 2018, Maggie was hired to be an engineering intern at a manufacturing plant in Davenport where Jordan was a production engineer. “When I first started out,” she said, “I asked questions to lots of people.
