How did your love story begin?

I think every true story starts long before you know each other at all. We both suffered, by others and our own actions. At some point we both decided to merely look for a companion. We found each other online and began a friendship. Over time we realized that we had the one person we needed. We found a piece of ourselves and were free to be our weird and crazy selves together.

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

Without hesitation, our wedding! Daniel proposed on a hike and I told him to pick the day. He picked a day 2 months away! We had a medieval wedding and exchanged crowns instead of rings. Our day was chaotic and glorious! I made the cupcakes with my kids, we had costumes and swords. People had an amazing time and my mom even painted a backdrop for pictures. Knights, dragons, fairies, and true love!

What would you do with $20,000?

Start our next adventure! We are dreaming of a homestead! While it won’t fund all of it, it will get us the small start we need. After all, you can’t rush into all the animals at once- much like you can’t rush to your true love- sometimes the detour grows you and prepares you.
