The Stogsdill Family
Mils and Ruger
We adopted Mils (the red one) last March and we recently just adopted Ruger (the other one) in June of 2008. This is test run for us before we have kids. I think we're doing alright but we definitely had alot to learn with these two. Check out the slideshow that we put together for our two dogs.

Once I graduated from college, I was was in search of a career. Graebel Companies decided to take a chance on me and I have been there ever since. I work with great group of people and really enjoy what I do day in day out. I do logistics for our Data Center Operations staff along with all wireless telecommunications. At times it can be challenging but most of the time it is educational and exciting.
Levi's Personal Life
I stay extremely busy. In the winter, Penny and I (and sometimes the dogs) go snowboarding / skiing and trail hiking. I have been trying to get back into playing video games as well when it is cold outside and there's not much else to do. It's hard to believe that when I was a kid I could play video games for 8 hours at a time without going blind. In the summer, I try to find time to mountain bike, hike, camp, play softball, play flag football, along with playing indoor soccer. Summers have been flying by lately but I can proudly say I wouldn't change a thing about my busy life.

Penny's Professional Career
In January 1996 I started my first job with the Colorado Rapids in their Sponsorship Sales Department. I eventually moved to New York City in 2000 where I worked for Major League Soccer. Memories I will never forget while being in NYC is 9/11/01. NYC is an amazing city and I cherish the memories I have there. I moved back to Denver in 2002 and took a different career path and went into Mortgages. During the course of 5 years I worked for Watermark Financial and First Franklin. After my mortgage days I decided it was time to get back to my marketing roots. I now work for the Denver Newspaper Agency in Advertising Sales.
Penny's Personal Life
As Levi mentioned above … we stay very busy all year. It is pretty rare that we get bored. Whether we are skiing/snowboarding, hiking, mountain biking, boating and camping we seem to stay very busy. On the side I like to do Stampin Up (scrapbooking and making homemade cards). I love to work out and read … lost track of these two things and am working on getting back to it. I love my life and feel blessed to be where I am – I wouldn’t trade it for the world!

Ryker's Personal Life
I like to hang out and spend the weekends with my parents. During the summers, I like to sleep, get pushed around in my baby stroller, and stare at my baby cousin. I like moving around alot and tend to spend my days eating, sleeping, pooping, and getting pampered. I don't like cameras so when my parents try to get me on film, I can be a real pain the butt.
