How did your love story begin?

Truly love at first sight. I know it sounds silly or even unbelievable, but it really was one of those "dream weaver" moments like from the movie, Wayne's World. We had an amazing evening just sneaking away from the party and chatting every chance we got seemingly never to meet again. Then, a year later, we were able to reconnect. She was planning another visit south with her roommate and asked her(roommate) to give me her phone number. We started talking and the rest is history.

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

There are so many, huge, crazily important life moments that we have been so incredibly lucky to share together, from deaths to births and everything in between. But my favorite memory is the first time she ever made me laugh hard, like crying laugh. We were at a local chili restaurant for lunch and the server made a mistake; Maggie said, "sounds like Mondays!" which, if you are familiar with the movie quote, is not correct. We had a new server for the remainder of our meal!

What would you do with $20,000?

A lot. Part toward the purchase of a home, a smaller part toward our dream honeymoon that we never got the chance to have, and an even smaller part to help start our creative businesses.
