sand or snow? the boys behind the blog #9

Welp!  It’s another post from me (Michael) in the glorious “Boys Behind the Blog” series!  I know, I know… you’ve missed the posts, as I haven’t done it every month.  But, there’s a gift card on the line, so you know I’m in!  So… here we go!

1. If you could live anywhere, where would you live?

If I could live ANYwhere, I’d say it’d be a house in the mountains, with a nice view, and a small little pond/lake.  I love hearing the sound of running water, as well as the views of mountains.  Maybe something like this?  (assuming it has a decent internet connection)

2. Sand or snow?

I’d probably go with sand.  I enjoy the relaxation that comes with the beach and the sound of the crashing waves.  When’s the last time anyone just sat and relaxed in snow?  I’ve certainly had enough of it this year!

3. What Winter Olympic sport would you rock at?

I honestly have no idea.  But, maybe speed skating?  I’ve always been pretty fascinated watching the athletes fly around corners and I may or may not be guilty of trying to mimic them when I roller blade.  And as a biker, the aerodynamics of it all is pretty fascinating too!  I mean… look at this guy!

4. You’re cooking a romantic dinner- what is your go-to dish?

Spaghetti?  Haha…  I don’t know if I have a specific “go-to” dish.  It probably would be some sort of pasta with garlic bread.  Then brownie sundaes for dessert!  I know… not too creative.

5. Fill in the blank: This year, I gave Tara a __________ for Valentine’s Day?

Since Tara’s birthday is right with Valentine’s Day, it’s always a little tough to figure out what to do.  And to top it off this year, there was a TON of snow.  But, I was able to surprise her with a new Kindle Paperwhite.  I had actually been thinking about getting one for her for a while, but then she mentioned it a week or two ago.  I’ll take it as a sign!  So, that ended up being a combined birthday and Valentine’s Day present.  Love you buddy!  Glad you’ve already enjoyed it as much as you have!  🙂

Linking up with Stephanie and Mallory today!
