A year later in 2009, after their first meeting, the good guys club took a win as he married her in Holy matrimony. They got blessed with three kids; Charley, Beau, and Mack, the youngest. Next year will mark their 13-year anniversary, and she couldn’t be more thrilled about it.

“Watching them become a little person and watching their personality, and their character develop… I love it.”
