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 grown) 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.

Splash pad

DateTuesday, July 26, 2016 at 03:18PM

I'm almost done, promise. :) 

On Monday, we took Cas & Charlie and crew up to Old Town. We hit Ben & Jerry's (we have our priorities, lol) and the new splash pad there. Blaze was rather hesitant at first, keeping his distance and watching warily. After getting sprayed straight on in the face a couple times, though, he decided it was great fun and really got into it:

I simply LOVE how joyous Blaze was:

After a bit, Case got in on the action, too:

Those nephews of mine have no fear, I tell ya!

We got a picture of all five boys:

And more pictures...the last couple are from the Oak Street splash pad area. We'd journeyed that way after a bit (not as much fun but still good)...

After that, we put dry clothes on Blaze & Case and stopped at a few stores before heading home.

Happy sigh. :)
