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.

Denver Chalk Art Festival

DateSunday, June 4, 2017 at 09:07PM

I've been wanting to go to the Denver Chalk Art Festival for at least a few years now. Today, we finally made it and it was a gorgeous day.

We made it down there early in the day (via light rail and free mall ride shuttle and walking) and joined the crowds...

We were quite impressed by most all of the artwork on display! I didn't take pictures of everything but here's a look at some of our favorites...

Seriously, the amount of work that goes into all of the art is astounding! So much chalk...

(This was at one of the installments...I just thought it looked beautiful.)

After walking through everything, we grabbed some delicious lunch, revisited a few favorites, then headed out.

It was a good day. :)
