TROY: We're big foodies,
we love to travel, we do
underwater photography.
SCOTT: And I'm a volunteer
scuba diver at the Georgia
Aquarium, I've been
there fourteen years.
MOXXIE: So you swim
with the sharks?
SCOTT: Yep, with the
whale sharks and the manta
rays.
TROY: Yeah well, since
we’ve learned how to scuba
dive, we have also learned
how to master fighting
under water.
MOXXIE: Oh yeah? So,
what does that look like?
(Laughing)
SCOTT: There is certain
sign languages used.
TROY: Sometime there is!
Once we went diving with
some friends of ours. We
were all under water and I
was trying to get Scott to
look at this purple sponge
and take a picture.
SCOTT: Poor sign
language!
TROY: I had spotted this
gorgeous purple sponge and
I was trying to tell Scott to
take a picture of it. I was
using all the sign language I
could think of to indicate to
him what I wanted him to
do.
SCOTT: He got so angry
with me, he had bubbles
flowing out of his mask like
crazy.
TROY: I was! I was so mad
that he was not figuring out
what I was telling him. And
then he gets mad at me for
getting mad at him, and then
bubbles start pouring out of
his mask.
SCOTT: So, between our
body language, our bubbles
and a few words in sign
language, it was clear to the
people that we were diving
with that we were actually
having an argument under
water.
TROY: They were laughing
so hard. They said "We've
never seen a fight underwater"
SCOTT: It is still something
we tell people, and we
always get a good laugh
from that memory.
MOXXIE: So, you’re
seeing the world, you're
traveling, you're doing all
these things. Do you guys
feel like you're living a
dream
TROY: Yes, we are living
our dream.
MOXXIE: What is the best
advice you could give to
other people right now, the
ones that are reading this
article?
SCOTT: Marry your best
friend. Sex and intimacy are
important, but it’s not about
that. If you marry your best
friend, you'll be best friends
for life
TROY: I believe in hard
work. I'm thankful everyday
for the success that we've
had and it does take hard
work. You have to get out
there. You have to be
willing to take risks and
learn how to jump.
SCOTT: And believe me,
we jump a lot! That's why
we have no money. (Laughing)
MOXXIE: You guys have
been awesome! Thank you
so much for this opportunity.
