Rob grew up in Alabama. Anna grew up in Sweden. In 1995, we met at the International Ball at the US Naval Academy, where Rob was a Plebe (first year midshipman). After a little dating and a few more years of school, we got married in 1999 in Tullinge, Sweden.
Rob spent 20 years in the navy being stationed in WA , SC and CT.
In 2019, Rob retired from the Navy and now works at Sonalysts, Inc, in Waterford, CT. Anna has a Bachelor’s degree in Biology and worked for a while in a medical lab. However, since starting a family, she has been a full time Mom and later farm wife. We have 3 kids: Alex, Quinn, and Amanda.
Over the years, we have dabbled in farming, including raising meat rabbits, dairy goats, pigs, chickens and turkeys for eggs and meat, and of course, we have horses. Our focus is now mostly on our horses and dairy goats. We do distance riding with our horses and milk and show our dairy goats. The younger kids show in 4-H and we attend a small number of ADGA shows with our herd as time allows.
Rob, so nice meeting you on our flight from Seattle. Thoroughly enjoyed our conversations. Hope you arrive home safely. Enjoy your beautiful family!
