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.

Nineteen

DateSunday, November 3, 2019 at 12:04PM

So. Noah turned 19 yesterday. We picked him up in the morning and spent the day together...opening gifts, playing games, eating here, playing more games, going out to dinner, filling out our ballots (I'll drop them all off today or tomorrow) and playing more games. Yup, just a nice quiet day together. :) I did also make him take some pictures. He was delighted, lol. But, hey, if you're here and I'm feeding you...you cooperate for pictures. :) 

Here, then, are the brother height comparisons over the years...

And this year...

We didn't do our traditional height pictures with Nathan and me...because, in all likelihood, Nathan, myself and Noah aren't growing any more, lol. I did still take some pictures together, though...

And I got a "birthday" photo of the boy...

He's all registered for spring classes already, is enjoying at least half of his current classes, likes his roommate, is still doing his laundry and is just generally doing well at being a college student. :) Yay!
