Well, I did it. I successfully did not post for an entire year. Congratulations? I’d begin to tell you about the mental stamina and willpower it took to avoid posting for that long, but I don’t want to give away all of my blogging material at once. Therefore I will kick off 2016 with a […]
One Year Ago, A Day Ago
One year ago a day ago Adam and I were sitting at the Ritz in Tokyo about to enjoy our first experience of sushi in Japan to celebrate our 6 year wedding anniversary. My how time flies. Yesterday morning we were enjoying a mountain drive home after a experiencing our first “closing weekend” at Vail […]
Lessons Learned…sort of

Go Ahead And Jump
Ok, now my song-lyrics-as-post-titles has officially maxed out.

A Milestone Only Slightly Missed
Happy 101th post to MandyandAdam.com!!!! Just had the realization that our little blog had it’s 100th post…yesterday. Oops. But it’s never too late to celebrate or acknowledge something cool! And what better way to do so than by using our 101st post to celebrate our 100th? I’ll admit, I have no idea if the correct […]
