How did your love story begin?

Technically, our love story began when we were working together. We both found very quickly how much we were alike in the way we looked at life. We look back and can’t believe it was possible to find someone that fits so well. We know each other sometimes better than we know ourselves.

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

We have been so lucky to have spent so many years making memories and traveling that it is hard to pick just one. We made a decision to live each day like it could be the last day together and every week we can look back and identify new memories to add to the list. All time favorite though; to this day, when I think back about our first kiss it still gives me goose bumps.

What would you do with $20,000?

We have renewed our vows 4 times in different special places. I would want to renew them again in San Diego on the beach where we first got married. Also, he has kept a document called memory lane since we got married. It lists every famous person we’ve met, places traveled, and all shows/concerts we’ve attended. We have a wall canvas of the 1st 10 years showing it all. I would update that to display in our home.
