35 years, 2 sons, and still best friends. She said no twice! Now we're chasing our shared Scottish roots—and the honeymoon we never had. ❤️
Help us share our love story in Variety, take home $20,000, and go on a triple date with Jeff & Emilie Goldblum and Charlie Day & Mary Elizabeth Ellis!
Our love story started with friendship. We became close friends in our early 20s, and Dave eventually asked Mary out. She said no—not once, but twice! 😂 Luckily, Dave didn't give up, and on the third try, Mary finally said yes. Thirty-five years, two sons, countless memories and plenty of adventures later, we're still best friends and still laughing together. We never had a honeymoon, but we're hoping that after 35 years, we might finally get the chance to take one—together in Scotland! ❤️🏴
What is your favorite memory you've shared as a couple?Our favorite memories aren't one single moment—they're the 35 years we've shared: raising our two sons, family adventures, laughing through life's ups and downs, and watching our boys become great men. But one of our newest favorite memories is discovering that Mary has Scottish ancestry too! Now we're dreaming of exploring both our family roots in Scotland together. ❤️🏴
What would you do with $20,000?If we won, we’d use the money to make a difference in the lives of people we love. We’d pay medical bills, help someone in our community who is struggling, and make sure our family has a little more security. Then, of course, we’d celebrate with a trip to Scotland to explore our family roots, because for us, “No Scotland, No Party!” We’d create memories we’ll treasure, while saving whatever remained for our future. Winning would be about love, family, helping others, and enjoying life together.
