You Can Call Me...

Ms. Masters in Social Work! Last Thursday I attended the University of Denver, Graduate School of Social Work Recognition Ceremony! It feels so good to know I have achieved my goal and completed my Master's Degree! The last two months have been a true roller coaster of changes in plans, emotions (both negative and positive), tying up lose ends, moving out of my apt and Ooo Yea... graduating from my Master's program.  

I could not of done it without my Mother and her endless loving support!  Her ability to let me snap at her without her losing a beat in her amazing positive energy.  My marvelous sister who is beyond supportive, level headed, and has a realistic mindset.  She has guided my decisions I have made and I will forever look up to her.  I cannot forget my two best friends who are pictured above! They also graduated from the program and are one of the reasons I made it through the program without hurting someone :)  They will also hold a special in my soul!

Above, these are members of my marvelous 'Denver Family!'  These are Mary's (the PCV) Mother, Father, and Sister.  They are beyond supportive, giving, and individuals I will forever be grateful for :)

Lazy Little Life!

My life went from crazy to lazy and I love it! In my last few days in CO I am trying to just soak up every moment of life and spend time with my favorites! I am not sure if I will find myself back in CO and I do not want to regret not doing an activity!

On Monday, my good friend Allie (who is actually from MI but lives in CO) and I went hiking in one of my favorite cities in CO which is Boulder.  Boulder is similar to Ann Arbor and very much a college town.  Besides having great hiking, an amazing farmers market, it is home to a restaurant I simply love. After Allie and I went hiking we headed to Mountain Sun Pub and Brewery for a Bean Burger and a Beef Burger!  The restaurant does not accept Credit Cards but will give you a 'Karma Evelope' if you do not have cash so then you can mail cash for your bill :)

Anyways, I am grateful for my sweet friend Allie and the mountains of CO!
