Teen sweethearts since 1993. Through love, loss, and adopting our grandson, we still choose each other every day.
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 began during Spring Break in 1993 at our friend Jennifer’s home. We met as teens and quickly became best friends. That friendship grew into a lifelong partnership. Over 33 years later, we still choose each other every day. We’ve built a family, raised three children, adopted our grandson after loss, and faced every challenge together, with friendship at the heart of our love.
What is your favorite memory you've shared as a couple?One of our favorite memories this year was in Greece. Standing beneath a flowered arch overlooking Athens, we realized that after 33 years, we still truly enjoy each other. We’ve shared milestones, raised a family, and faced life together. Our greatest accomplishment isn’t where we’ve been. It’s the life we’ve built.
What would you do with $20,000?We would use the money to create meaningful experiences for our family, especially our grandson, whom we adopted after losing our daughter and her fiancé. Family is our priority, and we hope to make lasting memories through travel while investing in his future.
