Buckeye!

Quick (and very belated) update on BLW 2013:

It was amazing!  We had so much fun.  The people there were friendly and we made lots of friends.  It was great to hang out with Maggie and Jacke, two of our summer counselors!

 

Song Circle! ....and I just noticed the bear on the wall.

 

Jalisa in her bubble costume for "Go Fish" night - adorable!

 

 

We ended the trip with dinner at Cracker Barrel with our new friends from Canada - they were so nice!  Jalisa is going to visit their camp next month.

 

I guess no one told Michigan that winter is over - there was STILL a pile of snow in our parking lot on Monday.  Dad and Me was a great time last weekend despite the cold though.  And it is now warming up just in time for our concert Saturday and all of our May events!

 

Happy Camping!

Oh, Hi, Oh!

Congrats to Jalisa for an awesome job teambuilding with 150 students at Coopersville last week - it was AMAZING!

Tomorrow we will be leaving for the Buckeye Leadership Workshop in Ohio, and Jalisa and I are SO EXCITED!  There are quite a few of us attending this year, inluding some new and returning counselors.  I can't wait to see them again - it's been too long since last summer.

Say Cheese!

I'm looking forward to the themed events, because I have some great costumes planned:
Go Go Gadget- I found an old trench coat in my parent's coat closet.
Go Fish- Ariel Wig and a big purple starfish barrette.
Go Back in Time-  Recycling my Back to the Future Halloween costume.
Go Team-  I'm going Harry Potter for this one.  Go Gryffindor!

We're going to learn a lot, see old friends, make new ones, sing songs...I feel like a camper!

Happy Camping,
