How did your love story begin?

We worked for the same director in the Philadelphia area. Separately, without knowing each other we moved just miles apart from each other. We worked for the same director yet still never met. His social media’s friend list had that director on his friends list that Philly Director and I was curious why someone in Alabama would know him. After talking a while we set up a date. We went for a walk and then watched 3 movies. A few days later I called him and said that he’s my boyfriend.

What is your favorite memory you've shared as a couple?

Our tiny little fabulous wedding! We hired a small second line marching band, I got a permit from the mayor. we marched to excellent music to the public amphitheater near the water and marched back the same. We had a taco bar,sweets, karaoke, and heated the swimming pool adding lots of rubber ducks. Our honeymoon was a year later at dragon con and we cosplayed our heinies off!

What would you do with $20,000?

Pay my husband’s debt. 20,0000 is almost all of it and we don’t spend much. Most of it was to pay legal fees to foster a better relationship with his young son. Strengthening that relationship was well with the funds and stress. Perhaps, if we win we can put money down on a house so that both of our son’s may have a bedroom. There’s a 10 year age gap, so sharing a room would be inappropriate. Towards the greater good and a better future. He’s truly my best friend!
