Pictures from my family!

Fine, I'll follow everybody's lead too! Hope you enjoy--if you're ever in Colorado Springs, give me a shout because you've got a place to stay. Plus, I'm only a few hourse from the skiing at Breckenridge, Vail, etc. I went snowboarding on Wednesday with my work and we had 6-8 inches of fresh, fluffy powder!





Here is my wife, Jennifer, and I. We were married in Colorado Springs on November 19th at our church--Vista Grande Baptist Church. What a great day!! :-)


















Here's Jen and I at a friend's house for a Christmas party.













Here's my new child, I mean, toy! Yeah, that's it, she's a toy, not a child. I bought her Sept. 30 and love it. It's nice having a hard top to enjoy the heat in the winter.










The day before my wedding, I went four-wheeling in the snow with my good friend Dan (with his Jeep), my dad, my brother (Chris), and my brother-in-law (Jason--can you believe that Jenny is old enough to be married for over 2 years).









Like a typical guy, I had to start the upgrades, so I installed some new rocker guards over Christmas.








Here's my old baby, I had to put her to sleep after she decided that she wasn't going to be a good girl and run any more. I really don't understand it. But, like you that enjoy some mud on a good four wheeler, I enjoy it too, just in a bigger vehicle.











Here's the Beast on a beach in Clearwater, Florida before I moved to Colorado.

niiiice rick. its good that your wife knew about your obsession with jeeps before you got married. of course, its not like something you could hide, like painting your toenails.

someday i am going to go out west to go riding (ATVs of course). when that someday will be i dont know, but maybe it will be colorado. you all got any sand dunes in collyroddo?

i was going to type more but i've started to learn something called "restraint" recently.

Rick seems to be struggling wht the restraint concept. Dude, you have 2 pictures of your wife and 5 pictures of Jeeps.

Did she know you used to drive a Pinto and a Subaru? Or did you act like you have always owned Jeeps?

Yeah, yeah, I know. The probably with dating and now being married is the difficulty in getting pictures of both of us. Crazy, isn't it?

I think, once upon a time I let her know about the COOL rides I used to have. . . . maybe, I don't know! :-)

As for coming to Colorado, we have the Great Sand Dunes National Park. Go to: http://www.nps.gov/grsa/ . Also, there are a ton of trails throughout the Rockies. Some for only ATV's and some for all kinds of vehicles. My father-in-law rides dirt bikes so he knows a lot of the trails. I can also borrow his ATV to ride with you.
