On the Road and on the Trails

Over Christmas and New Years I was in Colorado visiting my extended family. While there, my aunt chose to cook the week's meals from Mr. Tupman's collection. It was a great honor to have my family try my recipes! We did a lot of eating and a lot of hiking, having the fortunate effect of balancing each other out. Here are some pictures. Enjoy!

We are professional on the road-sandwich-makers.

Every year, our family makes a birthday cake for Jesus. This is my sister and cousin making the cake on Christmas morning.
