Back from the Sunshine!

Well, I got back from Florida late Sunday night. I had one of the most fun and exhausting week in a long time! There were tons of people that I got to see and hang out with as well as lots of musical guests like Jars of Clay, The Cash Family, Ryan Long, and a few others. A few other treats included Jeff Foxworthy, who is a Wyldlife leader (!) and Jack Hannah who brought animals and was a part of program that made me laugh for about and hour and a half straight. It was in the 80's everyday and I got to go to Islands of Adventure and Universal Studios. All in all it was a fantastic trip that I hope I will get to go to in another 4 years! Here is a picture of the pool area of the hotel.


Now I am looking foward to a trip I am taking with one of my best friends to San Francisco. We are leaving on Valentine's Day and staying over that weekend. I am sooooo excited! I have never been to the west coast so I cannot wait! It will be hard to limit myself to what I get to do!

Crazy Times


Going to see Santa!


Kaylee and Aubrey on Christmas Morning!

Sorry it's been so long! I just got back from time at Lake Champion for Christmas and New Years and a few days in Baltimore. Christmas was lots of fun with the Hagenbuch's. Then it was a quick stop in Baltimore to see family and friends. My friends took me to see a sneak preview of 27 Dresses... such a cute movie! New Years was a riot. I headed back to Lake Champion with friends from Baltimore. WE played lots and lots of Guitar Hero and Rockband (which is my new favorite. It made me feel like and awesom drummer!) Then we celebrated the new year with setting a chair on fire and watching a new entertaining thing... a roman candle war. Hilarious. There are lots of things going on with my job and life here at camp that will be changing but for now I am off to Orlando on the 8th for the Young Life All Staff Conference, where I will be with about 5,000 YL staff from all over the country. We take over the Marriot... the entire thing! So I am really looking forward to that.


Hope all of your Christmas' and New Years were wonderful!

Snow, Snow, Snow


Looking out from the office


A Look down the driveway

Walking down to the mailbox.

Well, I made it back from Colorado with minor delays. My flight was a few hours delayed getting out and then on the way back I woke up at 4:30am and arrived into Saranac at around 11pm. Long day! But it was a really great time out there meeting other bookkeepers from camps all over. It has been snowing for the past few days and these are some pictures of what camp looks like now ( these are views of when I walked down the the mailbox). We are in the process of moving our offices down to another place because our foundation is being redone. I am telling you, nothing here stops because there is snow on the ground. It's crazy!! But on Saturday Mel and I are driving to Syracuse to meet up with some friends and then our staff Christmas party is Tuesday. Hopefully I will get some pictures to put faces with names. Then Christmas and New Years break!!

From Saranac Lake

Well, I thought I would start this blog because I realized I was being bad at keeping up with keeping in touch through emails from those people who want to keep hearing about what is going on with my life here in the Adirondacks. So my plan is to update this maybe once a week and put some pictures on here (as soon as I find my camera!)

Thanks for caring!
