We are best friends. We have been through so much together, but we did it together. This year is 22 years now.
You decide who wins $20,000 and appears in Variety magazine as America’s Favorite Couple
We met on Jan 1st of 2003 in Indianapolis, IN. We were both attending a convention, so we hung out for the next 3 days. It didn’t take long for both of us to realize we were meant to be together. We were engaged that March and married that August. We quickly became best friends and have stayed best friends ever since. We have 3 wonderful kids and one grandson.
What is your favorite memory you've shared as a couple?Our favorite memory together was when we left for our honeymoon. It was the moment where we realized we had the rest of our lives to create memories of our own as a couple. We packed up the Honda Accord and set off to Panama City Beach, FL. For 22 years, we have been beach buddies.
What would you do with $20,000?We would probably take a vacation for one. In 22 years, we have only gone on a couple weekend getaways just the two of us. We had kids so early on, our lives have always been kids. While we wouldn’t trade it for any money in the world, we would love to have a week or so where we could get away and spend time together.
