We have never stopped falling in love. As we have grown and changed, we have discovered new things to love about each other along the way.
You decide who wins $20,000 and appears in Variety magazine as America’s Favorite Couple
We met on July 24th 1998, the day before I turned 18. The next day we swam in the ocean together and he threw me a birthday party. We were amazing friends for a couple of years after that, with only occasional looks that lingered just a second longer or hugs that felt a little warmer. We both felt it but held back. In February of 2000 he took me to dinner. After, I gave him a hug, looked up at him and said “thanks” for dinner, but somehow that was the moment we both knew we were in love.
What is your favorite memory you've shared as a couple?The births of our 2 children. Ashlyn was born in 2002 and Aisek in 2004. We were both transformed into new people on those days by instinct more than intention. We have done and seen a lot of amazing things but witnessing our love create life will always be number one.
What would you do with $20,000?We love to travel and love being on the water. We are avid boaters and Abe has his Captain’s License. We take at least one trip a year somewhere we’ve never been. We were recently given a boat that will be perfect for short trips and we would love to travel by water to some new destinations.
