He stood me up! We were set up on a blind date to a Halloween party. He ignored me. Although he said he had no idea a date was planned. Fast forward to 2011. He lost his wife to cancer a year before. I was selling ads for a magazine. I walked into his business and the rest is history.
What is your favorite memory you've shared as a couple?So many! We spent a beautiful weekend at the Ice Castle in New Hampshire a few years ago. The attraction was so fun and something neither of us have done before. We spent time wandering the town and spent a romantic night at a B&B. Was it our favorite because it was cozy or romantic? Im not really sure. However, romance aside we recognized that as a couple we needed to nourish us ad a couple to be better for our blended family. We are committed to this theory. So far so good!
What would you do with $20,000?Our dream is to have a camp on a lake in Central Maine. We would use the money to bring that dream to fruition. It would be a way to celebrate us and our love for Maine and create memories with our seven grandchildren (soon to be eight.)
