AUNTIE STATUS






Sorry for the long delayed update...but things have been a bit hectic here. I got a job with the Muscular Dystrophy Association shortly after returning to Denver form Nashville and over the past 3 weeks have decided to continue looking for another job. :) ALSO the biggest news of all is that I am an AUNT!!! Maddox Ralph Hoppenjans was born July 1st coming in at 20 inches and 6 lbs and change. Here is a pic of the little monkey! Carrie and Eric are doing fine and enjoying the first week of parent hood. I can't wait to meet little Maddox!

I also had a fun trip up to Indian Peaks with Dave, Laura and Scott. Here are a couple of pics from that trip as well. We hiked in on July 5th and camped out at Caribou lake. It was a blast and we had such a great time! We got rained on and hailed on the way out the next day though..that was kind of rough but it was still fun. There were wildflowers everywhere and just such a great weekend!

I have also been climbing a bunch and riding my bike into work a few times a week. That feels great in the morning since I can ride along this creek path the whole way in. It feels good.

I also had an interview with the Onion last week and that went great! I hope I get the job!! Should hear back next week on that.

Well this weekend is pretty lax. Dave and I are going for a ride today and probably going to get in the boat tomorrow. I'm trying to teach him how to roll. Then I have plans to climb tomorrow before diving into another work week. I'm ready for a new job...and more flexibility! Looking forward to moving up to Boulder soon!
