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.

Almost time...

DateSaturday, May 5, 2012 at 08:04AM

My first ever half marathon is coming up...tomorrow! In preparation for that, Nathan and I hit the race expo/packet pick-up last night and browsed all the booths. We had the most fun at this one, though:

The Brooks Cavalcade is cool. It's a double decker type bus that's just plain fun. Nathan enjoyed playing with the "Brooks DNA" and he even won a free tee shirt (which I promptly convinced him to give to me, lol). 

So. I think I'm ready. Here's hoping... ;)
