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.

FYI.

Just for your information...watching ladies figure skating with a 2.5 year old...particularly a 2.5 year old who *thinks* he can skate like the people on tv and proceeds to try to show you all around the family room...is darn funny. Seriously. :)

Amanda, thought I'd tell you that Jennica did that same thing when she was about the same age.

Girl! We must have been watching the same figure skating on t.v. that night! Hilarious! Hey, I'm 28 and I STILL do that around my house. Does that make me ... weird?

I used to be that little kid "skating" around the room while ice skating was on tv...or gymnastics...we'd watch that and I would do my version of the same thing. Ahhh...those were the days. :)
