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.

Just a few quick notes related to Micah today...

1. We were both delighted to be approached about our home climbing wall and have it featured last week as the Climbing Business Journal's first Homewall of the Week. Woohoo!

2. He's a little crazy:

Last Thursday, the boy decided to fully experience our almost foot of fresh snow. He made a snow angel and belly flopped into it a couple times...dressed like this. ;P

3. On Saturday, he was "coaching" me in my climbing. (He calls it coaching...I say bullying, lol. Let's just say he's encouraging and leave it at that.) During that, he added a hold to one of the routes I was working on. Not wanting to bother getting the ladder, he just hung from the top...when he found he needed another hand, he used his foot...

Such a talented boy.

That was all. :)
