It started at the most unlikely of places, Finish Line. Kati and Kael both worked there during high school. With their shared love of sports, especially basketball (they both received player of the year in boys and girls high school basketball for the Green Bay Press-Gazette at the same time!), the two started dating their senior year even though they attended different schools. But soon after the two parted ways to attend college. Kael attended Alabama Huntsville while Kati attended UWGB but they both continued to play the sport they both loved so much – Kati even played over seas!
During a Christmas break, while the two were both back in town visiting friends and family they ran into each other. Not wanting to miss another moment, Kael asked Kati out to dinner to catch up and they picked up right where they left off, like they had never skipped a beat! They happily dated for a while and married in 2013, one of the happiest days of their lives! Little did they know that just a few years later, they would be celebrating another happy day!
On March 29th at 5:08pm, first time parents and happily married couple, Kati and Kael, welcome their new baby boy to the world! Weighing in at 7lbs 7oz 20in, he was more perfect than they ever could have imagined! They named him Kace Ray (Ray is Kati’s grandfather’s name) and showered him with so much love! Even though they are thrilled to have a little boy, Kati was convinced they were having a girl. Two of Kael’s best friends and his brother-in-law all had boys within months of each other. Kati didn’t think the stars would have aligned perfectly that the four of them would be able to have boys that could grow up to be friends like they were, but that’s exactly what happened!
Here’s to adorable little baby Kace and his amazing, basketball playing, incredibly loving parents!
Even Grandma and Grandpa made a guest appearance in our session to hold little Kace!
Beautiful!
