We promise not to bore you, we love talking about ourselves 🙂
Meet Stephanie
Stephanie is originally from Fort Worth, Texas but has lived in New York and now calls beautiful Minneapolis, Minnesota her home.
She is the oldest of four children- two brothers and a sister and has an enormous extended family, largely in part to her grandparents who had like 17 siblings. That’s not a joke.
After getting a degree in biology from Texas Tech University she worked various summer research positions including gray whale research in British Columbia!
Along with acquiring a degree she acquired a puppy named Izzie.
She is now an 11-year-old Yorkie who loves to dress up for the holidays…
Not.
A few years later she went back to school, this time for nursing and started working in an intensive care unit. All of that was just fine, but something was missing.
In December 2015 she made the cross-country move to join her family in Minnesota. It’s unclear what she was thinking because Minnesota in December isn’t always a pleasant place.
Shortly after moving to Minnesota she met Pete. They got engaged and then married on an epic hiking vacation at Zion National Park.

Meet Pete
Pete was born in Chicago, Illinois and mainly grew up around Milwaukee, Wisconsin.
He made the trek up to Minneapolis to attend the University of Minnesota where he graduated with a degree in some English stuff. Shortly after he made the sometimes always questionable decision to attend law school.
