She was born in Hawaii, moved around a lot. Met in Indiana, but our paths crossed before that. She had me for 3 yrs before I lost a bet.
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!
Working, as servers, coworkers would say that we’d never get married. I first saw her at a bowling party, she fell but nobody helped so I ran out. Then working together I’m telling fantastic jokes but she’s not paying attention. I say “That’s a joke”, but I feel like it’s a lost cause. Little did I know that she had claimed me from the other servers saying “He’s mine”. We flirted in odd ways. I pointed out a bump on her nose, she smacked my head with 12 stitches in it. But somehow it worked out
What is your favorite memory you've shared as a couple?26+ years makes it very difficult to find one memory as a favorite. We’ve had many great experiences but just recently a trip to Pictured Rocks Michigan stands out. We stayed in a yert, but not any yert, a luxury one. Hiked the cliffs over Lake Superior, driving through areas where no cell service was available. Toured the lake on a boat ride that got swarmed with buffalo gnats, and sat outside to catch a glimpse of the northern lights, but no luck. That’s just a reason why we need to return.
What would you do with $20,000?Our kids are getting started with their adult lives. It would be great to help them get started on their journey with a little help.
