How we met - In 2019, Natalie and Haim both volunteered at the Harvard Square Homeless Shelter. Natalie noticed Haim connecting enthusiastically with the other volunteers ("unteers" as Haim liked to say), and Haim noticed Natalie partnering with guests on their goals over dinners and card games. He took the leap and asked her to go dancing...

The early days - Early days were filled with dance classes, ice cream outings, and late nights studying.

Early love - By the time we went together to winter formal, love was in the air (and flowers in our hair!).

New England days - After college, Natalie went to work in the Boston Mayor's Office for two years while Haim completed his Masters in Immunology. They then started medical school, Haim at UMass and Natalie at Harvard -- and feel so lucky to be rooting for each other every step of the way.

Moving in together - Natalie and Haim move in together...with 400 college students in Lowell House. RA life means lots of soccer games, spa nights, and dining hall laughs with our student family.

The proposal - The Swartzes and Moores came to visit Natalie and Haim on Cape Cod. Behind the scenes, Haim's sister Hili - along with a crew of dear family and friends - helped prepare a beautiful display on the beach. With loved ones hiding behind the sand dunes (and Natalie's sister Amanda hiding under a lifeguard stand to capture the moment), Haim proposed!!!
