How did your love story begin?

I had been single for a while swearing off men after a third failed relationship. Bob had been divorced for about a year and was sick of dating apps and had also decided to take a break from dating. That’s when my step mother stepped in. I remember getting her call, “I want to set you up with someone” my immediate thought was great, This is what my life has come to…then she told me his name and job “Bob, and he’s a Builder” seriously? Bob the builder? We started talking and never stopped!

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

It’s hard to pick one. Only 2 months into dating I was going away, I had booked a cruise and was going to be gone 12 days I already couldn’t imagine being apart for 12 days so I invited Bob. Both of us secretly thinking this is either going to be really good or really bad. It was AMAZING we had a wonderful time together and just a short year later we were engaged

What would you do with $20,000?

We would pay for our wedding! We want to relive our cruise and get married somewhere tropical $20k would allow us to do that and bring along our combined four children
