We met towards the end of Covid at a bar. Brad was seated at the table across the aisle from Xee's and noticed her immediately with her terrible (but lively!) dancing. When she began to leave, he knew he needed to talk to her or risk possibly never seeing her again so he did the best thing he could think of. He blocked her from the exit and asked for her number, beaming his most charming smile. Her response: Give me 3 reasons why I should?

Our favorite memory is still our wedding day. On that day, there was a tornado warning, and we had to completely deviate from our plans, which included the ceremony being outdoors, on a beautiful island in the middle of a pond. Still, we thoroughly enjoy reliving that day and the joy it brought us to be surrounded by the love of our friends and family to celebrate with us, even under the threat of severe weather. As hectic as the day was, we wouldn't change anything about it. It felt perfect.

We would use a portion of the winnings to FINALLY go on our honeymoon! We experienced a lot of life changes during our first year of marriage, including a career change and a medical procedure, so our honeymoon has been very delayed. We'd also love to use the money to build a small business together so we have better stability to build a family.
