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.

Karate tournament

Last night, Micah participated in his fourth karate tournament at Karate West. As usual, all was good and Micah took first in his group for forms and second for sparring. Here he is sporting his trophies:

He was pretty excited about it. ;) (Like last year, the trophies are repurposed and awesomely big. Incidentally, the larger trophy doesn't fit with his others on his closet shelf so now holds a place of honor on his desk, lol.)

(Asher is still sick so didn't get to participate this year. :( Here are the posts from our previous tournaments, though: 2011, 2012, 2013.)
