How did your love story begin?

He showed up at my high school band practice with his friend who was there to visit his girlfriend (a friend of mine). I remember walking out onto the field and seeing a tall very handsome looking boy, then I locked into these stunning ice cold blue eyes. I asked my friend about him and she got me his number, I called him that night!

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

We could easily say the births of our children or the purchase of our first home but those are the obvious but we both agree our favorite memory was a date night in OKC, we went ice skating at a beautiful outdoor rink, I am a natural at 4’11 and Jake not so much at 6’2. It was just so fun and childlike. We laughed and fell (he did not me) then we drank some hot cocoa on the sidelines.

What would you do with $20,000?

We would start by taking the honeymoon we never had a chance to have. Then the remaining would probably go towards a business idea we’re trying to get off the ground.
