2012 is off to a good start!

That's right - 2012 is going well so far!  I haven't been the best blogger, but I'll try to catch up with you today.
  1. Snowboarding Copper Mountain - Drew and I went up in January and then again in February with a bunch of friends.  Boarding, snow tubing, great food, relaxing, and a little adult beverage consumption.  :)  I made my first run down the mountain without a fall - and even tackled a short blue run!

  1. Colorado Mammoth - Again with the same group of friends, we witnessed the indoor spectacle that is professional lacrosse.  :)  Someone equated it to classy NASCAR - loud, raucous, awesome, with a crazy halftime show involving cheerleaders/dancers, bikers, and furry mascots.  Uh huh.
  2. Liam's Birthday - Well, I'm a few days early but all the same it's exciting.  One of my best friends, Dawn, and her family are celebrating her son Liam's second birthday - and the anniversary of his surgery to remove a rare tumor.  This little tyke has been through so much in two years, he could tell us a thing or two.  We'll be celebrating around the country with a balloon release, and Colorado will be represented.  Check out the story at http://briananddawnfudge.blogspot.com/.
  3. 365 Project - Still going strong!  We're 60 some days in right now, and over the hardest part - winter.  I know, pretty snow and all that jazz - but when you're off to work in the dark and back home in the dark there's not a whole lot of natural light for nice pictures.  We've collected quite a study in macro (up close) shots of household items.  Regardless, here are some of my favorites.









  1. Women's Big 10 Gymnastics Championship - We'll be headed back to Iowa City in March to take in the Big 10 gymnastics meet and support our Hawkeyes.  And, we'll be bringing the Killians, Swansons and maybe a few more to the party.  Can't wait to see you all, fellow Hawks!
What has everyone else been up to lately!?
