How long have you been married?

Tickle: We’ve been married for a little over two years

Carol: 103 years. (Laughs)

Tickle: I don't think it’s quite been 103 years. (Jokingly) It has felt like it some days.

What’s your favorite thing about being together?

Tickle: She’s got a whole lot of my favorite parts, which kinda attracted me to her.

Carol: When he goes to work (laughs), and I can get stuff done around the house. No, I love him. He’s my favorite part.

What’s a fun date night for you?

Carol: We pick out each other’s outfits, and whatever I pick out for him, he has to wear. Whatever he picks for me, I have to wear. … We do this, and we go out to eat in these outfits. It’s usually pretty great.

Tickle: We have a good time. We go to the same restaurant every time. … They always look forward to seeing us come, taking our pictures, seeing how dumb we’re dressed.

What’s your favorite thing about being Tickle’s wife?

Carol: My favorite thing is traveling with him. We’ve gone to a lot of places since we’ve gotten married.

What’s your favorite thing about being Carol’s husband?

Tickle: She completes me. For years, I struggled, I could never find my way. I was in and out of jail. I just couldn’t seem to act right. She gives me a reason to act right. Really a reason to stand up and be the man that I am today.
