Through the Tinder app! Ok, so in 2014, a colleague of mine started using the app. She insisted I try it. I perceived the app as a hook up thing. BUT… She later started a relationship with a man she met on there. In Jan 2015, she finally convinced me. By March, I met Max. We spoke here & there… but in July, we started to talk on the daily… we had our first date at D&B. We connected instantly, & here we are, almost 10 years (July 31st) & married since December 21, 2024.

I have many, but this memory took it home. Our wedding day. It was magical, it was romantic, it was fun. We fell in love all over again. When I got to the isle, although we had over 100 guests, lights & cameras, I immediately saw him at the end… & as I walked down the aisle, he was all that I saw. I was overwhelmed with joy that our union was celebrated with love & happiness. Amongst those dear to us. Our vows were perfect, especially his. Our reception was a blast. Truly unforgettable.

$20,000 would honestly be life changing for us. It would take us so much closer to investing in our first home. We want to have kids, but we want to make sure to have our own house to call home. With a yard for our kids & pups (we have 4 Yorkies). Things haven’t been easy, especially while living in SoFlo. It would be a dream come true.
