How did your love story begin?

When I was 12 we moved into his neighborhood, my sister was best friends with his girlfriend and they would hang out at the house and I had a crush on him. It never went anywhere. We moved on he got married had a baby, got divorce. I was engaged but just didn’t feel right. We happened to run into each after Katerina hit New Orleans because I moved back home and been together since.

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

We went on a cruise and just had a blast, we woke up super early just to see a sunrise together. It was an amazing time.

What would you do with $20,000?

Have a do over honeymoon. We just did a quick three day trip because he was so sick. We didn’t get to enjoy our honeymoon, or our marriage in the beginning, due to when we got home from our trip he got a call to get some more test done. Two weeks after we got married he was in for a kidney transplant and was in the hospital for our first month and a half of being married.
