A winter photo taken from the base of Mt. Sanitas
To this day I can still get little misty-eyed by how amazing it is that I get to live in Boulder Colorado. This is a photo I took a few days ago while hiking about a half mile from the house…I am truly blessed!
Here are a few more of my favorite Boulder scenes:

Elf On The Shelf Down!!!
“She came f*ckin’ UNGLUED!!!” were apparently his exact words. Meet my husband’s best friend, Jason, and his daughter, Jessie. Together they make one of the funniest pairings on the planet.

Here she and Baby are in mid-twirl!
Yesterday I found myself pretending to shop Ann Taylor’s Spring 2012 Nautical Collection so that I could secretly snap pics of a classic case of baby doll abuse and photo bomb my sister, Fawn. I know it sounds creepy for a grown woman to hide behind clothes and use her camera phone to take pictures of a little kid (ok, it actually is creepy) but in all honesty I spied the little thing aggressively rolling her baby doll through cosmetics and couldn’t help but draw a parallel between her expression and the one most new mothers develop sometime during the third week of mommiehood and I had to share it with Fawn. It was the “I’m tired of dragging this thing thing around!” look… but unlike real new mommies she didn’t care if the world knew how much she was hating life.
I would have snapped and left but considering it was 3 pm and she was refusing to say hello to the friend her mother just bumped into, I knew she was right on the edge of that very moment when her rage at being saddled with a very bad decision (to roll Baby around all day) was about to take over and she was going to whirl Baby across jewelry and collapse into an uncontrollable fit of screams and I just couldn’t miss it!

How I envision myself in Planet Motion Dance Class - god I'm hot!
I don’t know what it is, but when Chris is working out of town I find myself in the most random situations…like last night’s accidental participation in The Planet Motion dance class. Please click the link before reading the rest of this post. I’m seriously still chuckling at how this class was exactly what an SNL skit depicting a “hard core exerciser” visiting a Boulder dancercise class would be… complete with two Napoleon Dynamites killing the pre-class time with a little center-of-the-room Tae Kwon Do for all to enjoy.

I bought this card to send to myself
One of my sneaky pleasures is snapping photos of random things and sending them to friends and family in hopes of making them spew coffee across the table during important business meetings. I call it Photo Bombing and the thought of it actually working makes me laugh hysterically.
Greeting cards, street signs, advertisements, excerpts from small town newspapers, little kids with their shirts tucked in their underwear…pretty much anything that a sweet person would express concern over, I find funny. Some people collect stamps or coins, I collect funny moments.
