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.

Is it wrong...

...that the boys were excited about the Superbowl only because it's one of the rare-ish occasions when we have chips and pop in the house? (Not, mind you, that we don't *want* chips and pop all the time, lol...); or,

...that I was cheering for the Giants only because I love hearing Micah root for Eli Manning? He calls him "Ellie" because that's how he read his name on the tv screen and he can't seem to remember from game to game that it's "Eli" not "Ellie."

Nah, I didn't think so either. ;)
