How did your love story begin?

Jesse was working at the local Country Kitchen dressed in a bear costume, I was there with a friend to visit her older sister. Jess saw me and thought I was cute but under aged but when he found out I was the same age as him well it just went from there.

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

Our favorite memory is when Jesse proposed to me at the Colorado Renaissance Festival. It was at the end of the day, he walked me over to the wedding chapel and got down on one knee. I was so surprised that he lost the words he was going to say. The ring was not the right size, and let's just say I lost it in the grassy pasture but did find it! We still tell that story.

What would you do with $20,000?

Take an overseas honeymoon to either Scotland, Iceland, Sicily or Ireland.
