Connect How did your love story begin?

Alex came in every week to the bowling alley I served at with his brother. I would go over and he wouldn’t talk- he would just look at me in such movie way- with pure love in his eyes. I was losing hope for the type of love I always dreamed of until the day his friend’s girlfriend followed me into the restroom and told me to shoot my shot since he’s so shy! I gave him my number folded into a paper airplane in the checkbook and the rest is history <3 We have been completely inseparable since.

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

The moment we got engaged! Everyone told us not to because it was so soon, but the heart wants what it wants! I could see the box in his pocket immediately, and played along as we walked to the park in my apartments. This was where we talked until 3am on our second date, aka the moment he fell in love with me. I’m still gushing over that! The pathway is 1/4 mile and we did so many laps, he was so nervous!

What would you do with $20,000?

Alex and I wholeheartedly want to help the world in as many ways as we can, and with that, we would definitely use it to create a company that sells eco-friendly reusable products, made by us! The brains and the brawn, guess who’s who! Mother Earth is gracious enough to love us, and she deserves the love back. Romance isn’t the only love around us! We both want to make a difference in this world, and such a large amount of money would incredibly help with that.
