How did your love story begin?

My mom always told me I would never meet my husband at a bar. She also said nothing good happens after midnight. Enter Ben, outside of a bar right after midnight. Someone kept telling him he looks like Seth Rogen and I confidently walked up to him and told him he doesn't at all (he does a little).

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

The birth of our son. It starts with labor starting a month early in the middle of the night. Then getting pulled over on the way to the hospital. Then doctors and nurses arguing as I almost bleed out. It was a wild ride and exactly what you'd expect from us.

What would you do with $20,000?

We had planned our wedding for 11/11/2017. While planning we got a surprise. The surprise came with a due date of... 11/11/2017. So we never got our dream wedding with our friends and family. We would like to do a 10 year vow renewal and this would help so much!
