We took these over in Scottsbluff, NE, and had a lot of fun doing it. The turned out great!

Vacation 2009

We did a little different vacation this year. Chose to take about a week and a half and travel to see some family back home in Burlington, Colby, and up to Denver for some fun. We will end the vacation at my parents for their 40th wedding Anniversary.
The girls at the Kit Carson Co. Fair in Burlington.

This is a beautiful butterfly at the Butterfly Pavillion in Westminster, CO. From there we traveled to Water World the same day. We had a BLAST!

The Fam this Easter!

Easter Egg Chaos!

Is this really healthy? I mean come on.....we dangle the carrot in front of all these kids for over an hour making them all stand in a line around the grassy "knoll" while they drop thousands of eggs full of CANDY. Of all things...yes I know...it's part of easter, but really. The weather was horrible. Windy, cold, and dreary. The hospital helps the Chamber sponsor the event, and when the amublance siren wails.....look out....

The canon's turn loose and mass chaos ensues...... I honestly wondered if they weren't going to need an ambulance FOR one of the kids by the time all was done! It was like a war zone!

And 45 seconds later....it's all over! Whew....

New Job...New Office

This past week I began my new job as Practice Administrator. I was promoted by my CEO to this position. Essentially...my role is to administrate the hosptial owned physician clinics. Two of them are on campus, and two are off campus in different towns. It's a really cool opportunity. I got to move into the new addition of the hospital called the medical arts plaza or (MAP building as we call it)

Entrance into the MAPs

MAPS building lobby. This area is shared by 3 different clinics...

two of which I oversee. The other is a private practice clinic.

Here's my new office. For any of you who saw my old one, you'll know...

this is a NICE step up!

OOOO....AAAAH!

OOOO...AAAH! The traditional cry for Lost Valley Ranch up by Deckers, CO. Our men's group has been going there for quite some time now. I believe it was my 6th year of going? Maybe 7th. It's a great time to fellowship with my brothers both from Alliance, and back home. Although we faced many obstacles in getting (and staying there), it was well worth the trip and very refreshing!
"THE GROUP"

Beautiful Mountains!
