Connect How did your love story begin?

We met online during the pandemic and clicked right away. Our first date was at a drive-in movie—super simple but kind of perfect. Even though we lived in different states, we made it a point to see each other every week. Six months later, we moved in together and never looked back. It all just felt easy, like it was meant to happen. The rest is history.

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

One of our favorite (and funniest) memories is the day we got engaged. It was our 1-year anniversary, and we planned a romantic weekend in Virginia Beach—only for it to be the windiest day ever. Picture us yelling over the wind on a sandy walk with our dog, who ended up needing a hotel bath. The beach proposal? Scrapped. Chris ended up proposing in the hotel room after I got out of the shower. Not the fairytale plan—but perfectly imperfect, and totally us.

What would you do with $20,000?

If we were to win the $20,000, we’d put it straight into savings—because we’re dreaming of growing our little family in the next couple of years. Diapers, cribs, baby books, and all the cozy onesies—it all adds up! We want to create a stable, loving home where our future baby can thrive. This money would help us take those first steps toward parenthood with a little more peace of mind and a lot of excitement for what’s ahead.
