How did your love story begin?

Job was actually dating a friend of ours when we first met. Once our friend introduced Job into our friend group, something clicked. We had the same sense of humor, same taste in music, similar upbringings, etc. We had so much in common that even my friend said jokingly, “You know you both should be dating each other!” My friend and Job ultimately broke up after a few weeks of dating (yknow, high school haha) and then Job asked me out a few weeks later and we’ve been with each other ever since.

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

On the last day of our honeymoon in Honolulu, it was a goal of ours to go to a specific steakhouse that was highly rated. In Honolulu it’s common that most restaurants require a reservation. So on our last day, right after we had lunch, we thought it was a good idea to walk over to the steakhouse to put our names in for dinner. They told us that they had an opening right then and that they couldn’t guarantee an opening later. So we went, ate, and waddled back to the hotel laughing at ourselves.

What would you do with $20,000?

We recently moved into our first home and it is definitely a fixer-upper. The home has a lot of 70s-styled charm and we want to enhance those features while making sure the home is functional for our needs, can accommodate our future plans for when we start a family, etc. It would be a huge relief to receive the awarded amount so we can start to work on making the home of our dreams a reality, one that we aim to live in for many years to come.
