We met at our now in-laws BBQ (Steph’s sister and my best friend, now brother in law Dustin). Was supposed to be a “dudes day” BBQ, no gf’s, no wives, etc. Fast forward a few hours later and my now wonderful sister in law and her friends (n sister) made their way down from North Jersey to Central. By the end of the night we were the last 2 up and could not stop talking to eachother. Yada yada we kept in touch over the next few weeks and started dating. Have not left each other’s side since.

Atlantic City, March 2012. Maybe not my favorite but when I knew. Went to a Frank Turner/Dropkick Murphys show in AC. We had only officially started dating 10/01 the year before. We grew to love the same bands (mostly Bouncing Souls) but she was in for this show. This was the 1st time I grabbed her and told her I loved her. She reciprocated and said she loved me too. I cried while the Murphys played Shipping Up To Boston (weird I know) but from then I knew. I can’t ever let her go. Haven’t since

Hard not to say, “help the mortgage” We certainly would do some of that. But what’s very important to us is research for MS. Steph has battled with this for 20+ years and it’s something very important to us. While that money would be important to us to get some peace of mind, we are always looking for ways to help MS research and aid. We LOVE Christina Applegate and Fernando Mendoza’s contributions so far; we would dedicate ourselves to help further this cause. We might splurge on some Oreos too
