We're genuine best friends. Since our teenage years, Austen has always been my person, and life is simply better together.
We would like to thank you for supporting Austen & Alicia Thomas in this year's competition. Your participation allows us to aid both the Los Angeles Regional Food Bank and Oceana in their respective missions to support hunger relief and ocean conservation.
Our story began as teenagers. Austen is my brother's best friend and would ride his motorcycle over to spend time with my dad, my brother Steve, and eventually me. What started as a teenage friendship grew into something neither of us could forget. Life took us down different paths for a while, but somehow we found our way back to each other. Through every chapter, Austen has always felt like home.
What is your favorite memory you've shared as a couple?It's impossible to choose just one memory because we've spent years collecting adventures together. From traveling through Norway, Guatemala, Thailand, Canada, Hawaii, Mexico, Key West, North Carolina, Newport, Rhode Island, Zion, Arizona, Mammoth, and beyond, every trip has given us unforgettable moments. More than any destination, our favorite memories are the simple ones—laughing together, exploring somewhere new, and realizing that no matter where we go, our favorite place is with each other
What would you do with $20,000?We would use the $20,000 to help grow our family through adoption. Becoming parents has been a dream we share, and adoption costs can be overwhelming. This gift would bring us one step closer to providing a loving, stable home for a child and beginning the next chapter of our lives together. It would truly be a life-changing investment in our future family. ❤️
