This weekend was amazing! I went with Nate over to Winter Park to visit a few of my fabulous aunts and cousins. On someone's camera, there's a great photo of me and Bodi, the youngest and oldest cousins, with a 23 year age difference. Some moments, life seems pretty amazing. Electa, my other tiny, ball of engery cousin was also a barrel of fun! She actually managed to get Heidi, Karla, Nate, and me to play Go Fish for TWO hours and that was in addition to two g...

Well, we've been busy! Sorry I haven't posted in a while... Our new place is really amazing, even though it still isn't nearly furnished yet. Any mail can be sent to 324 Clover Ln, Fort Collins, CO 80521 and this address should be good till the end of February. So what have we been up to?!

This past week was an absolute blast and I really wish Nate could have been here to share it with me.

I went out with one of my roomies to a debate party where we did DIY pizza and passed around some bipartisan Maker's Mark followed by another night at the Trail Head and a game of ...

So, our new home has some very strong pulls, but the downsides seem to outweigh them... Pros: STELLAR roommates, bike rack in the front room, and hand painted floor in our bedroom Cons: For our room there are no windows, we're in the basement and it at one point smelled like sewage, cold, relatively small since we're sharing with the house's water heater, and we have to walk through someone else's bedroom to get to ours (granted, he's rarely there, but just the...
