How did your love story begin?

We met when my now husband was on a naval ship through a online dating site. I reached out and he responded to meet up and I was super late but he waited. Being a military man that showed a lot of restraint and patience to me. Lol

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

When my husband took me to Disneyworld for the first time all expenses paid and I arrived there to meet him he lit up after seeing how excited I was to be there as a now disney adult.

What would you do with $20,000?

We would use it to continue home improvements on our first home we just purchased and take care of my families who rely on us for support.
