Over the weekend I graduated with my Master's degree. I never thought I'd ever get here so I'm pretty thrilled. I started my program in the fall of 2009 and then took a hiatus in the summer of 2010. I had wanted to return but family life was more of a priority at the time.... Continue Reading →
In January, husband went snowboarding in Loveland. He went by himself because I'm not a snowboarder or a skiier. I have been meaning to share photos he took of this little trip. It's all so breathtaking.
Happy New Year! Time is flying by. I can't believe it's already the middle of February. Husband and I have been watching the Olympics and I couldn't believe that four years ago was the winter Olympics in Sochi. It felt like it was just yesterday when that happened. My oldest daughter competed at a national... Continue Reading →
The year flew by. I tried and failed at many things this year, but this last day of the year, I'm going to share the positive things, and my favorites. The photo above is a dish I made trying out roasted purple cauliflower. It's hard to see but to the right of the salmon is... Continue Reading →

The older one doesn't like tortilla with just butter. She prefers quesadillas. I've made a... Continue Reading →

We weren't there to see the end because we left when the second thunderstorm came through. I took some photos with my phone and did some editing with VSCO. This first photo... Continue Reading →
July was a busy month. Swim is done for my youngest. It was very intense and we're glad to be done with it but we will probably join a less rigorous swim team during the school year. School starts for my youngest this coming Monday. She'll be in 5th grade, the last grade in grade... Continue Reading →
This was my first hike this year. This was a really easy hike. The landscape was mainly flat so I did't get much workout in, which is fine for now since it's been awhile. The views were beautiful and very green. We laid down a couple of rocks for Kat, the girl who passed away... Continue Reading →
