THE NITTY GRITTY
HELLO

Hi. I'm Amanda...a happy wife and mom to three awesome guys. We've lived here in Fort Collins for more than 20 years and are proud to call it home. Before moving to CO, I worked at a city attorney's office, making use of my law and Master's degrees from Duke. After settling in Fort Collins, I homeschooled my three (now teenage and older) sons and was delighted to experience music classes, soccer, karate, swim team, archery, Science Olympiad, First Lego League, parkour, and climbing (not all at the same time!). From 2005-10, I was also a contributing editor for a national scrapbooking magazine, authoring a book and a couple of monthly columns. From 2009-10, I founded and ran the Good Grief Blog. I enjoy learning new things, spending time with my family, volunteering with The Matthews House, traveling and indoor rock climbing.

Tuesday tidbits.

DateTuesday, July 14, 2009 at 10:10AM

Hi all. A few unrelated things...

1. Yesterday was awesome. :) We took the boys down to Santa's Workshop near Colorado Springs for the day to celebrate Asher and Micah's birthdays. Got soaked at a couple different points, but it was still fabulous. Took 468 photos so you'll have to wait a bit to see. ;)

2. Just as a heads up, the next few weeks will be busy around here with company coming twice and the getting ready for that. Will still try to post but wanted you to know I'm not ignoring you if I go missing, lol!

3. Today's Prism blog post is by yours truly. Pop on over and check it out, okay? Here's a sneak:


4. Just for fun, here's one of the layouts I finished at my Mom's Day Out over the weekend. Totally inspired by Elizabeth Kartchner's challenge (scroll down a bit). :)


Okay, that was all for now. ;) Hope you have a fabulous Tuesday!!
