Even after 20 years, he still gives me butterflies. People think we’re newlyweds! He is my silver lining.

I met Lynn on June 11, 2005 in Decatur Al. He challenged me to a game of pool for a dance. He won. But so did I! He proposed on his birthday (8/28/05) so how could I say no? We married 12/28/05 and we wouldn’t change a thing!
What is your favorite memory you've shared as a couple?On January 3, 2006, we found out we were pregnant with twins girls! I called him at work and he had to sit down. He thought I was joking as his sisters, myself and my mother are all twin girls, making them the 4th set in our families. This led to naming our daughters. After much debate with many family members & their opinions, we decided to name them after ourselves! Lynnsie and Jossie turned 19 on May 16, 2025!
What would you do with $20,000?We currently rent on the coast in Mississippi, while renting the home we own out to my son and his family. It needs a new kitchen floor, among other things. Half would go to renovations on the house. The other half would be split between a vacation just for us in the Keys, Annual Christmas Family Trip, & our savings account.
