What's new: Another semester, come & gone! 10 down, 2 to go! The coming season brings national board exams and the initial stages of starting my practice. So far the plan is to stay in the Boulder area and specialize in treating women's health issues using Chinese medicine (acupuncture and herbology). I just completed an OB/GYN specialty clinic at school, and worked to get my first-ever infertility patient pregnant!! Very exciting! Graduation is in August, 2006, followed by a month in China doing advanced study in herbology.

We didn't send Christmas cards this year, but wish everyone a wonderful holiday season! Know that you are in our thoughts.

Zia LOVES her puppy! But does Sierra love her?

Same flower, but the softness becomes hard. The yin & yang of a thistle. 

Another favorite...I love the mood in this piece.

Welcome to my blog. This site is intended for friends & family who want to have a glimpse into the life of Kandace. Initially, I wanted to create a site that would detail my upcoming trip to China, complete with pictures & stories of my experiences while I'm there. However, I realized that with all of the busy-ness of our lives, this could be a great way to share some of the day-to-day comings & goings with those I don't get to see enough of. I'll include some of my photography for you to view, updates about acupuncture school, and general tidbits about life as I know it here in Colorado--in short, my personal wanderings & musings. Enjoy!
