Since the last time I posted was about how it was summer I’m a little shocked that this post is about how it’s winter!  Well it’s fall, but it’s very cold out and no snow.  So, what have we been up to since the last post?  A quick recap for those who haven’t been paying attention:

Brooke graduated with a Bachelor’s degree in Technical Management.
She’s thinking about getting her PMP.
Brooke got a new Honda CR-V with all wheel drive so no more getting stuck in the snow.
Brooke turned 27 or so and I think each one is getting a little harder to admit to.

Mark is still in school with four more classes to go.
He took the fall semester off and if Brooke wouldn’t make him do it, he’d never go back to school as it’s a waste of his time in his opinion.
He’s been busy helping Mike with race4myplace.com, working on his own creation crowdrent.com, talking about continued help with gauto.com, coming up with new ideas.
Mark got a Honda Civic which is affectionately known as the vomit comet since Max gets car sick and it’s not all wheel drive so it should be a fun winter.
Mark is officially a full-time teleworker so we’ll see how that goes.
Mark turned 31 and really couldn’t care less.  I think 31 was harder than 30.
Crowd Rent did it’s first transaction and I made my first three dollars in business.  Doesn’t make me rich, just happy.
Mark is a serial “wantrepreneur“  but has yet to quit his job and make a fortune on any of the many ideas floating around his head.

Our puppies are a year old and entertaining as always.
We still live in the same house now just passing the two year mark.  Longest I’ve ever lived in one spot since I’ve lived on my own.
Our company, CH2M Hill sold our division, EMS, to Golden Gate Capital and we’re now called Critigen.
We’re going to the southern Caribbean this winter for a week.

Oh, and it’s winter again.  It has snowed, it’s been literally freezing, never over 32F/0C all day yesterday, lather, rinse, repeat.

Last night was the first day of summer and the first fire. It wa a great night with friends and fire. We also had to kick on the air conditioning last night. Take that Phoenix.

Well, just as soon as spring showed it’s face winter smacked it and said get back in the basement, I’m calling the shots. And is winter ever calling those shots! We’re expecting literally the first substantial snow fall I know of this season and certainly this year. The snow shovel was getting [...]

Although since there are two puppies and two videos I’d say this is your quadruple does of puppy!
Puppies in snow!

And this is why I find it hard to believe anyone will miss President Bush

Regardless of your political affiliation you have to admit, this guy wasn’t exactly presidential.

We haven’t posted in some time so I thought I’d share what we’re up to. First off, we’re taking care of the puppies. It’s amazing how much work they can be. They are doing well and they wake us up between 6:30 and 7 every morning with an immense amount of face [...]

The title has no relevance to the post but I’m listening to the Notorious B.I.G. Discography and think it’s the best line in Juicy.  Anyway, ever had the snot in your nose freeze as soon as you go outside?  Doubtful as most of our readers are family in Phoenix!  They know all about the smell [...]

Well Shane Co filed for bankruptcy in Denver today.  If you know us you’ve probably seen Brooke’s engagement ring.  We bought it at the Shane Co in large part due to their commitment to service and lifetime warranty.  We paid less than we would have elsewhere and we felt we got a better warranty and [...]

Max empties the water bowl to play with it instead of drink it.

So Brooke and I just got back from Mexico.  We went to Puerto Vallarta this time after Cabo last time.  Now I’d been to Cabo on a work trip before and that was my second time.  Both times I was luke warm on it and after Puerto Vallarta, we both can agree, Puerto Vallarta is [...]
