Any weekend you'll find me having an awesome time running through the mud while jumping over fire pits, camping out in the wilderness, going to the Pantages for a taste of musical theater, leading a woman out on the dance floor, enjoying dinner on the pier, or dessert in front of a bonfire.

I like first dates to be relaxing and chill with plenty of opportunity for fun and conversation. Usually, I start off with some fun conversation over a drink. In the summertime, I go for a jamba juice, but during the winter you can find some good hot chocolate at the local coffee shops. I also savor looking for a new and interesting place to explore. There's always a new adventure waiting around the next corner and I love finding new places and things to try. While we're out having fun, there's no reason to worry about those "awkward silences". If you get nervous, I'll just tease you... After all, dating should be fun... and a little exciting...

Now, not all life is fun and games. I work hard so that I can play hard. At the end of the work day, you can find me moving heavy weights at the local Crossfit Gym, getting my hands dirty improving my house, or preparing for the weekend. I enjoy going out to have fun on the week days, but personal responsibility and independence are important drivers in my life. They enable me to do the things I enjoy doing.

On Sundays, I go to church and it's an important part of my life. I enjoy participating in my church's activities and lessons. However, I'm known to take a Sunday "off" to go take a hike or do some outdoors activity. It's one thing to talk about the wonders of God's creation and another thing to be immersed in it. I follow the gospel and live my life accordingly and I recognize the good it has brought to my life.
