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.

Yes, I'm still here. :) Yesterday, I took some awesome shots of the boys running through the sprinkler in the front yard for the first time this year...will work on posting some of those soon. (Yup, 178 more pics to sort through, LOL!) Between that and the bike ride we took just before that (Grandma Nancy borrowed Nathan's bike Wednesday on our ride but walked yesterday due to technical difficulties), I, by the way, got a bit more sun than I should have. ;) Not horrible, but definitely more than I'd gotten in a long time. (Gotta find some sunscreen today, LOL!) In any case, Grandma Nancy's visit is going nicely, soccer continues, Noah's first communion is this weekend and the sun continues to shine. :)

And, because I'm a sucker for journaling tags, I'll share with you some free ones that were posted today. I love the teacher appreciation book she managed to pull together in a week!

Okay, back to everything here...happy Friday to all!
