It’s cliché to call him my best friend or the love of my life, but I think that’s because words sometimes fail to explain what it means when you find that person whom you CHOOSE to love with all your heart.
The man beside the crazy running, blogging woman of RTTF is often referred to as D. I mention him in posts about being jealous of his ability to beat my PR in his very first half marathon, leap tall buildings and always look buff. But he actually has a lot more to offer and in honor of his birthday I thought a fun little quiz would help you get to know him too!
However he tends to speak in 1 word answers so this process took a bit of prodding, 
but we got a few things straight:
Who do you love more Amanda or the cats? Amanda
In a fire: Amanda or the cats? Amanda
Ok she’s not listening, tell us the real answer? He laughs, pauses and says “Amanda” {if you lived here you would question this too as he then turned to Madison and mutter, “no really you first”.}
What is the weirdest thing you’ve seen her do for RTTF? Taking pictures of her food is pretty weird, but the growing pile of “products” she claims are going to be prizes for her challenges every year is really odd. {NO really they are for the holiday challenge!}
If it weren’t for her would you still have that old brown couch from college? No…but I probably would have had it until I moved to Miami, so another 5 years. {Same goes for the mattress he had which was handed down from his parents}.
What do you wish she would cook more of for you? Bake more cookies and cakes {he can dream on, I cook…no baking because I eat it all in 1 sitting}. On the actual cooking side he has declared a desire for more Mexican food. <<The man doesn’t have a favorite color, food or well anything so this took awhile.
What’s the best place you’ve traveled with Amanda? Europe. Yup that was his total answer. I asked for more and it came out something like this…”It was our honeymoon. Different than other trips. Nice not having phones or maybe you did. Liked all the countries.”
Tell me about your other half! What’s one thing you absolutely love about them??

I think it’s abundantly clear that today I’m grateful for my husband. I’m grateful for the past 10 years we’ve shared together. I’m grateful for the many more years we have left to enjoy.
