What a weekend we had...
The CK reunion was awesome!! It was so much fun to see everyone again. Sportime USA was filled with smiles, laughter, hugs and good times. I think one of the highlights for me was becoming a very proud owner of a Campus Kids foam finger! That was way, way too much fun! Sophie and Liam love wearing their foam fingers as well.
So, when the reunion comes I always know that snow will quickly be making it's way back into our lives. Though this year it was pretty fast. By the time we made it home from the reunion there was already a dusting of snow on the ground. We saw reports that there was about 4-7 inches of snow at camp. We will be sure to get some pictures during the winter for you all. It is absolutely beautiful to walk around camp in the winter however, it does NOT compare to camp during the summer!!
My weekend ended with a DELICIOUS treat...Holiday Cookies!! My mother-in-law bakes cookies each year for her church's holiday fair and each year we attend and get to decorate the cookies with lots and lots and lots of icing! Bill, Sophie, Liam and I each had the chance to decorate a cookie or 2 (or 3- haha). Yummmm...
At the end of this weekend I realized that the holidays are definitely upon us. We went out to pickup our Christmas tree, we decorated and enjoyed our holiday cookies, every night we appreciate our neighborhood lit up with the most beautiful white lights, our wreaths are hung and my camp countdown has officially begun. Only 6 more months until we are back at camp. I can't wait for the sounds of the aqua zip, songs around the campfire, laughter in villages and the list goes on and on. As you are all getting ready for the holidays I hope that you all take a moment to reflect on what you are most thankful for and what you most look forward to for 2010. Family and camp friends are at the top of my list.
I'm off to enjoy a nice warm mug of hot cocoa. Until my next blog...
