How did your love story begin?

We met in high school, but didn't have a connection, although we had many mutual friends. We went on to college and Jeff became a USMC officer. We connected when he was home after a deployment and got together with those same mutual friends from high school.

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

The journey to having our three amazing kids. We were together for seven years before we had our first child, and then 3 years later we were blessed with boy/girl twins.

What would you do with $20,000?

Donate it to St. Vincent de Paul in my community.
