some new things have occured

First, this one is new! Mandi had her first baby girl. Brynley Eve.
Todd has started making homemade artisan bread, otherwise known as partisan bread. It is awesome. And very pretty.
This is the Harry Reid loaf. Seemingly light and palatable, yet laden with flax.
This is Tuk. (this is for you ty!) Our good friend Gilbert gave him to us for Christmas! We got a little bird from my sister too! But we haven't brought him down yet. One pet at a time.

And we are home! It is good to be back after our long trip.

Super stoked that you guys have a dog. Now Ani will have someone to play with on River trips! Let me know when the Sarah Palin Loaf is ready, I like my bread lite and airy without much substance!

I love Tuk!! Good work, Gil. Let me know if you want me to lend you Reno for training... although I think you guys are perfectly capable. He is a lucky dog.
The partisan bread is a fantastic idea and another perfect/nutritious way to rile up friends and family. We miss you guys. We want to come up and visit for Spring break. Brace yourselves...

We must try the bread! It looks delicious! It was fun seeing you guys and your new place. Nate is laughing at us for the whole boot switcharoo thing! See you soon!

What a great dog! It is so cute.
And Ash, you look very natural holding a baby.
when will you two come ski with us? The offer is on the table. You can even stay with us if you would like.

not to go against the "grain", but that bread looks like it got the mange from your previous dog ... maybe the resolution on my screen is off. Plus, I remember what Todd's cooking tastes like from our scout trip to the sand dunes. Are there skittles in that loaf?

Yay, what a cute puppy! I know Tuk and Alta will be best buds:) We want to come visit...i just need to build up my vacation hours.

I didn't know Mandy was even prego. I love your neices and nephews. Remember when we had fhe at your house? Oh, the good ol' days

Keep me posted about this weekend...
