Let’s keep this short and simple. No one wants to read a bunch of paragraphs to figure out a few boring things about me, so I’ll save you the trouble and hit the key points…
I am Heidi Nicole
I am married to Chris, aka The Husband.
Until just recently we lived in Wisconsin.
I love me some cheese curds but the mountains called.
We currently live in Colorado in the Denver metro.
We have a cat, Fred, and he is spoiled rotten.We also have 2 goldfish that we are waiting to die off.
{They kind of died shortly after our move to CO}
Our fish tank is waiting for a new population of tropical fish
Chris and I met in high school.
Then got married on our 6 year dating anniversary…
…in the Colorado Rockies in January.
Aside from that little tidbit we are not sappy romantics.
I am a crazy person.
Chris is pretty normal.
He balances out my crazy.
And tells me he loves me.
I consider myself a runner.
And I pretend to be a mountain biker.
I like mountains – I’m a snowboarder too.
Chris is also a mountain biker and snowboarder.
I am not mentally capable of having a good run without gum.
I think Gu or any energy *gel* is disgusting.
Green may be the most amazing color in the world.
Snow is probably the best form of precipitation.
Grocery shopping is my favorite kind of shopping.
I will not go into public without mascara!
About 96% of the time I do not like children.
So, there you have it. If you have questions…fire away.

Hey! Just came across your blog, I am from Wisconsin and dating my high school boyfriend still. We met in 7th grade and it was fate
. Thought I’d stop in and say hey!
Hey, if you can survive the drama that goes down in the life of a teenager you can survive pretty much everything!
Loving the blog!
Thank you!
Hi.. Just came across your blog and it is really cute!!
Awww…thanks! Hope you keep stopping back!
Yeah! Just saw your tweet today about liquor and now we are fellow Heidi’s with blogs who are connected.
Ain’t social media grand!
And you had answers for me! I’m really liking this social media dealio!
Haha that’s a cool picture of your cat
Haha, yeah…he is kind of a special ed cat!
youre hilarious! I am crazy, my hubs is normal (kinda). I love green and carry gum with me EVERYWHERE!
Haha, thanks! I think the only reason Chris seems normal is because I’m definitely an odd duck!
This section made me crack up! My husband is Chris, and I hate all power gels, too. Gross gross gross.

Thanks! I aim to please!
And nothing is more digusting (to me) than bad tasting, warm jelly yuck!
I love that we both have husbands named Chris…I have never lived in WI – but my husband went to college in Milwaukee…then we met when he moved back to CO

Its only been a few months but I’m a firm believer that CO is better than WI…if only for the weather. Your husband can probably attest to that!
The photos of you & Chris in the snow are adorable! I’ve never seen wedding pictures taken in the snow all bundled up, so I definitely admire the creativity

Brittany @ Itty Bits of Balance recently posted..Changing Paths & Making Moves
Thank you! We are big snow lovers…as you can tell!
I used to never be able to run without gum either! also love green
looking forward to reading more!
I definitely agree with you… Snow is the best form of precipitation. I just love the snow! And happy that I live in Colorado. It snows just enough here. Then melts quickly so that I don’t get sick of it. LOL

I’m right there with you. I won’t hesitate to suit up in snowboarding gear just to frolic in the yard but as soon as the snow gets crusty and brown I’m over it. So far CO had delivered wonderfully in the snow department!
Ahh.. Wisconsin. We moved here in August from Minnesota. Sounds like you are really taking advantage of the area!!

Ahh, yes. We love the weather, the scenery and the six million things we can do outside! It still isn’t quite “home” but we are working on that!
digging the snowy photos AND the cat photos. love, love, love. come to utah and let’s snowboard! we would get along.. i have many of the same views, especially the ones on snow and kids

janetha recently posted..it’s in the bag.
Anyone who can also say “snow, yes!” and “kids, meh!” is a perfect friend in my book! I was to Lake Tahoe a few summers ago…and cannot wait to go snowboarding with views of the lake! Our season passes cover Heavenly and Northstar so we’ve talked of making the trip…do you have decent snow yet?!
Oh wow…now I feel like a complete moron. Just so you know, I’m aware of the fact Lake Tahoe is in CA, not Utah…just felt the need to point that out! We were talking about Heavenly this morning and I had an “oh my goodnes, I’m an idiot” moment and had to come correct this! Gah. I am now going to go sit in the corner…and hide!
All of that being said – where do you board in Utah, you know, places that actually exist within the boundaries of the state?
Hey! Found you from Heather on Twitter – just wanted to say that we’ve got some things in common and you should join us for the Pure Barre class! My fiance and I are getting married on the day before our 6 year dating anniversary and he also lived in Wisconsin (MKE) for 1 year of those 6 – we love WI! Mmm. Cheese curds and beer. Anyway, hello!
I LOVE all your photos! So cute and hilarious! um your cat is pretty much awesome too!
Thanks! He is quite amazing…until he is sitting on your pillow and meowing in your face at 2am, just because he wants attention!
Hey Heidi,
I’m also a fellow born and raised Wisconsinite. I’m just curious to what part of Wisconsin you grew up in. Since you tend to do a lot of stuff in the Twin Cities I’m guessing you are from western Wisconsin, which is also where I am from. I grew up in a small town near the MN/WI border near Rice Lake. Just curious.
Hey! I actually grew up in Central Wisconsin {think south of Wausau} but went to college in Eau Claire. With EC so close to the Cities we did end up doing a lot there!
I spy Bear Creek Trail in those bike pictures? Maybe?
Just happened across your blog..looking forward to reading!!
Yes! That is the Bear Creek Trail!
Thanks for stopping by!
