How did your love story begin?

We were acquaintances and saw each other randomly at a local restaurant. We both had given up on love, but there was something about him. I started driving by and would only go in if he was there. After a few months the “regulars” convinced him, I did in fact like him. My friends convinced me to make a move, between the two, we decided to go for it, we married two months later. 2 years later life couldn’t be better.

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

I purchased an inflatable hot tub and could not figure it out. We had exchanged numbers, I called him on a whim. He was supposed to be golfing but it was rained out. He showed up, I was crying, it was raining, he put it together in the rain, that is why I started driving by the restaurant! We had an inflatable hot tub cake at our 1 year anniversary party.

What would you do with $20,000?

We would book an amazing adventure for our 5th anniversary and my 50th birthday. The $20,000 would allow us flexibility to expand our options. And, we probably buy the pets some extra treats!
