Connect How did your love story begin?

Ours began in middle school. Back then, we'd cross paths at Skateland, and unbeknownst to me, my husband had the biggest crush on me. Life took us in different directions, and over the years we'd occasionally see each other, never realizing what the future had in store. Then, at exactly the right time, we were both single and reconnected through social media. It felt like life had finally lined up the way it was always meant to.

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

There are just soo many!!!! If I have to share one it would be the proposal in Punta Cana. It was EPIC. Just the two of us. Me thinking we were celebrating my birthday while Isiah was secretly hiring videographers and photographers to capture the special moment on the beach. After 4 years he already knew me better than I knew myself and he knew I would want everyone to share our special moment.

What would you do with $20,000?

If we were lucky enough to win $20,000, the first thing we'd do is pay off our debt. That would lift such a huge weight off our shoulders and allow us to focus even more on what matters most—our family. As a family of eight, life is busy, and there aren't many opportunities to take a big vacation together. We'd use the rest to take our children on a memorable family trip where we could unplug, laugh, make lifelong memories, and simply enjoy being together without the stress of financial worries.
