		<title>Third Place, Baby!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[When asked if I would be climbing in the Phoenix Rock Gym&#8217;s Thrash and Dangle Climbing Competition I almost couldn&#8217;t stop myself from laughing before getting my response of &#8220;no&#8221; out. By nature, I am not competitive (in sporting events anyway). I feel bad if one team beats another by too many points, I hate [...]]]></description>

		<title>Canyoneering!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[&#8220;If you stay through the weekend, we could all go canyoneering on Saturday.&#8221; Shannon coaxed as we were planning one of my many visits to her and Aaron&#8217;s house. To many outdoor enthusiasts this would be all the coaxing you would need. For me, it had me second guessing my trip. For those of you [...]]]></description>

		<title>Erin turned 30!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Yes, it&#8217;s true, I am no longer a young 20-something. But I kinda like being 30&#8230;at least so far it has treated me pretty darn good. I was lucky to turn thirty in Young with Ben&#8217;s parents. And on my birthday we had a group party for Judy (Ben&#8217;s mom), Victoria (a friend of Keith [...]]]></description>

		<title>Snowboarding</title>
		<description><![CDATA[While we were staying in Young, Northern Arizona was hit with two pretty big snowstorms! Lucky for us, we didn&#8217;t really have anything pressing so we were able to snowboard both times! At the first hint that snow was coming, Ben abandoned Lily and began preparations for some amazing powder. The first day was close [...]]]></description>

		<title>Life with the Smith’s</title>
		<description><![CDATA[We made it back to Young just as Lily&#8217;s clutch was enjoying it&#8217;s final days on our trip. Ben noticed that it was going awhile back so he ordered the necessary parts to replace it. Once we made it back to his parents house the parts were ready and waiting for him to get down [...]]]></description>

		<title>Crocheting</title>
		<description><![CDATA[As some of you might remember, I started crocheting back in Wyoming. I started in the parking lot of Walmart with a book called I Taught Myself Crochet while Ben was working on the bus&#8230;which led to the crocheting of many mystery objects left to the imagination of the receiver. After a little extra direction [...]]]></description>

		<title>Moments of Nostalgia</title>
		<description><![CDATA[While we were in Southern Arizona Ben took me to see his old home. His family bought to a pistachio farm when Ben was 15 and he spent about three years living and farming there. When he lived there there was a full pond and bountiful garden. Sadly, when we came back, things were not [...]]]></description>

		<title>Staying with the Schmugge Family</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Ben went to the University of Arizona with Colin so when we made it to Tuscon we made sure to stop at their house for a weekend of fun. The first night we were there we had fun hanging out and eating some delicious barbecue. Also, thanks to Kai and Scarlet, we were caught up [...]]]></description>

		<title>Arizona Climbing</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Making it back to Arizona brought us back to familiar territory. Things got easier, we knew where to camp, where to climb, we even had friends that wanted to see us and generously offered beds, washers, driers, and showers! We took full advantage of this familiarity as soon as we arrived and did some climbing [...]]]></description>
