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.

Intramural Tournament

Last Friday night, I neglected to get a good picture at the end like I usually do (drat!), but I still wanted to share a great big congrats to my sweet Micah, who took first place in his group at the annual Karate West Intramural Tournament. He competed in black belt forms against a friend...

That's Asher presenting Micah with his first place medal. (It was decided that Asher was okay to be one of the judges for Micah's group since there were five of them, lol. Last year, Asher took care to not be one of Micah's judges.)

This was Micah's seventh year participating.

Hooray for karate!!
