How did your love story begin?

We met in a Yahoo chat room! He saved me from a bunch of internet trolls :) He was cute and I couldn't resist his smile! He has been my loving protector ever since, and was a gem after I had to have Emergency brain surgery in November!!! Only around 20% of people who have that surgery survive it.

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

Our favorite memory as a couple was when we had an entire theater to ourselves and saw Arthur starring Russell Brand and Helen Mirren. Our other favorite memories are just the laughs and inside jokes we share, & the fact that we can tell what the other needs with just a look 😆

What would you do with $20,000?

We would take a vacation...we've never been to the ocean together and both never been out of Missouri, so we would take a nice vacation and use the rest to buy a reliable vehicle to get us from point A to point B.
