August 26th, 2009 / Tags: , , , , / Categories: News / 2 Comments »

So what do you guys think of the new look?

Colleen is working hard at adding the photos (check out the photo gallery page!) and also all of the recipes!

We will be re-adding the Family Tree Info, but it will be a password-protected page.  If you are a Lofthus Family member or relative (and who isn’t?)  🙂  then just e-mail Colleen for the password.  You can also e-mail Colleen if you are interested in blogging and posting on the site!

Oh – and anyone can leave comments on any of the posts, so feel free!  🙂
