First Seder

Tonight we attended our first Passover Seder at the home of our some of our friends!  It was a great experience, and we both learned a lot and drank a lot of wine.  I think I could totally be Jewish...

Here we are with Brie, Esther, and Erin -- three fellow Postdocs from the U of A.

And, yes, there is a lamp in the backyard.  Don't worry about it.

Birds of Prey

Today we took advantage of one of the most fantastic activities offered by the Desert Museum: the Birds of Prey show.  Ravens and falcons and owls...oh my!

In case you couldn't tell, the owl was my favorite. :)
