Shawn and I met at the one place you’re told that you’d never meet anyone at; a Bar! Once we met we knew pretty quickly we had found our person. We moved in after 6 months together, got engaged on our 1 year anniversary, married 13 months later, and had our daughter 13 months after that. We have been married for 22 years and look forward to more adventures to come!!
What is your favorite memory you've shared as a couple?Our favorite memories are those where we are just having fun and laughing. It could be on a cruise vacation, or hanging with friends, or just a random night playing trivia. We do enjoy each other company very much and really could have a good time in a paper bag!
What would you do with $20,000?Wow! 20k is a lot of money and nothing to sneeze at! It’s money that would help us have a cushion, help with my daughter’s college tuition, or maybe be able to book a few cruises!
