1. Coffee or Tea? Both, I love a good Early Grey, as well as a nice strong cup of coffee!
2. Morning person or night owl? Neither? I need a solid 8-9 hours of sleep, but if I had to choose, probably morning.
3. What city/state/country would you like to live in? I LOVE living in Kansas City. We have an incredibly low cost of living, plus everything else you could want or find in the city, with the exception of a beach.
But it's central proximity means that any domestic destination isn't more than a 3 hour plane ride away.
4. What kind of pets do you have? Does our Roomba count? We call him Rodrigo.
5. Favorite place to travel? Travel is like children, it's impossible to pick a favorite! In the U.S., we like Boston and Florida. Out of the country, we love Wellington, New Zealand and Barcelona. But we're headed to London and Paris in 9 days, so those may rise to the top of the list!
6. Favorite movie? Pass. Too many to list.
7. Favorite TV show? All time? Sex in the City. Right now, I'm loving the Good Wife and Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt. I'm also a sucker for anything BBC/PBS Masterpiece, including Mr. Selfridge, Endeavor, Call the Midwife, etc.

9. If you had any one super power, which one would you choose and why? Teleport, definitely.
10. Which season is your most/least favorite? I get seasonal affective disorder and could completely do without winter. Spring and Summer are my favorite.
1. Coffee or Tea? Usually coffee, but I like both

7. Favorite TV show? Almost all of the Alaska shows (Alaska the Last Frontier, Life Below Zero, Buying Alaska, etc...)
8. Do you have any siblings? 2 older brothers

3. What city/state/country would you like to live in? If I could take my family, farther south, say Virginia or the Carolinas. Less snow, more beaches, and less travel time to Disney. Otherwise I'm good where I am.

5. Favorite place to travel? Disney World - wish I could live there.

Here's a rundown of our trip: We flew into Anchorage, rented a car, and spent the night in a hotel. The next morning we had an awesome breakfast at a place called Gwennie's and then drove 4 hours south to Homer.
We spent 4 nights/5 days there in a house we rented. We went halibut fishing two days, and we went salmon fishing one day. Our day "off" we explored Homer and went to this wildlife museum thing, which was really neat. We would take home some of the fresh fish we caught and grill it for dinner. We also tried some of the local restaurants, which were really good, but I can't remember their names
On day 6 (I think!) we drove almost 8 hours from Homer up to Talkeetna. We spent the night in a hybrid hotel/cabin, which was awesome. We were going to go to the Denali State Park, but my dad had an unexpected medical emergency so we had to drive three hours back to Anchorage to go the hospital.
We spent the remaining two days exploring Anchorage, and we went to the flight/plane museum. We had dinner at a pizza place called the Moose's Tooth (amazing). They have a sister restaurant that has a movie theater in it. Each theater has a bar inside it. You order your food, and they bring it to you inside the theater while you watch the movie. It was really neat!
DH and I are already planning on going back. It was so awesome and such an amazing experience!
@alyssa32713 I have never been there in the winter time. I heard that the amount of snow varies quite a bit though. In Homer, they said that close to the water doesn't get a ton of snow, but if you live a few miles away from the water, then they get a good amount. Obviously, the more north you go the more snow you will get. Y'all should definitely go visit sometime! I truly can't say enough how much we loved it there.
1. Coffee or Tea? - COFFEE
2. Morning person or night owl? - Morning person (although I'm married to a night owl).
3. What city/state/country would you like to live in? - Seattle. I love it out there.
4. What kind of pets do you have? - A beagle (dog).
5. Favorite place to travel? - Pacific NW.
6. Favorite movie? - The Island.
7. Favorite TV show? - Star Trek: Voyager
8. Do you have any siblings? - 1 (a younger sister).
9. If you had any one super power, which one would you choose and why? - Probably fly so I don't have to drive in the DC Metro area anymore.
10. Which season is your most/least favorite? - Most: Fall, least: summer (because it's so darn humid and hot and there is only so much clothing one can take off for the sake of modesty to stay cool).
BFP - 10/29/2016!!!, EDD - 7/8/2017
1. Coffee or Tea? Both, but coffee more. And, just black tea; nothing green or fruity.
2. Morning person or night owl? I'm becoming more of a morning person as I get older.
3. What city/state/country would you like to live in? I would never live outside of Canada.
4. What kind of pets do you have? Two cats: Gaius and Fergus, one chocolate lab: Boomer
5. Favorite place to travel? It's hard to pick a favourite. NYC is the place I crave most; Europe is wonderful.
6. Favorite movie? Silence of the Lambs
7. Favorite TV show? Game of Thrones
8. Do you have any siblings? One sister, one brother; I'm the oldest.
9. If you had any one super power, which one would you choose and why? To see the future
10. Which season is your most/least favorite? I love fall, summer's too hot for me.

TTC Since January 2011 - We have bad sperm*BR*
He's already asked when we're going to plan a trip with our now 5 week old. I think I broke DH to love Disney too and I'm secretly proud that I made him love it
I'll go if DH & I have a kid and the kid is old enough to enjoy/remember it. Maybe this is an FFC/UO, but neither of us really enjoy Disney (with maybe the exception of Epcot...).
BFP - 10/29/2016!!!, EDD - 7/8/2017
We'll go if one day we have kid(s), but not sure if I would want to go just the 2 of us?

TTC Since January 2011 - We have bad sperm1. Coffee or Tea? Coffee!!! Love the caffeine, love the taste. Limiting my coffee intake is going to be tough when baby happens.
2. Morning person or night owl? Neither? Haha. I like to call myself a "full invested in the day" person. From 10am to about 10pm, I'm solid -- I never nap. So yeah...neither. Haha.
3. What city/state/country would you like to live in? I like where we live. I'm fairly certain I'll live the rest of my life in Bergen County, NJ. Boring, I know. But if I had to chose, either San Diego, Seattle, San Fran or Denver. I've never been to any of these places but from what I hear, they're ideal places to live.
4. What kind of pets do you have? One 65# pittie who thinks he's a lap dog, Moose (see avatar)!
5. Favorite place to travel? Negril, Jamaica. DH and I have said if we had to chose just one place to travel for the rest of our lives, we'd pick Couples Swept Away in Negril.
6. Favorite movie? Wow. Too many to list. As of late, anything Marvel. From my childhood, Dirty Dancing, Grease, The Sound of Music.
7. Favorite TV show? NCIS, Criminal Minds, SVU. I'm a weirdo that's into crime shows. DH gets creeped by my liking of Criminal Minds.
8. Do you have any siblings? One older brother, he's 3 years older.
9. If you had any one super power, which one would you choose and why? This is going to sound strange, but I would like the power to put myself into deep, restful sleep on command. Haha. Like in the movie, 5th Element, where they go into those little sleep chamber/vestibule things, press a button and they're out cold. I wish I could do that at will. This comes from years of not getting restful sleep and feeling like utter crap all the time b/c of it.
10. Which season is your most/least favorite? Fall is definitely my favorite! Being a Jersey girl, I've always said I love the changing of seasons, so even though I have a favorite, I don't really dislike any of them. They all have their pluses, but, as the climate gets crazier and the weather more unpredictable, winter is getting more and more dislike-able. Haha.
