Dear Kids, Parents, Staff and Family,As the Holiday season is now upon us, I feel it is a time to feel and express our gratitude for all we have going for us. It is easy to focus on “our problems” or other negatives BUT a secret of life is to consistently push our focus to all the positives we have going on in our lives.

I am so grateful for the health and love of my family AND to have all of you in our lives. Each year we get to see each of your/our children grow (physically, mentally and emotionally) and to be a part of this is such a gift which I am so grateful for.

All of us wish all of you a Happy, Healthy, and Fun Holiday season and hope all of your dreams come true.

With Love,

Holiday Edition

This is what you will need:

A box of pasta (whatever you like)

4 tablespoons of butter

2 ¾ cups of milk

¼ cup of flour

Large bag of shredded cheddar (or 3 cups)

Salt

Pepper

Dash of cayenne pepper

Dash of nutmeg

Breadcrumbs (optional)

Directions:Boil up a box of pasta, drain it and wash off.

Don’t cook the pasta too soft as it should be

‘al dente’ remember it’s going in the

oven after.

In a separate deep pan or pot you are going

to make a roux. I know it’s a fancy shmancy

word, but it is what makes it delish!

Put your pot on a burner and keep it at

medium heat

Drop in 4TBS of butter and let it bubble

Once it starts bubbling put in ¼ cup of

flour and mix them up well, it will become

dough like.

Add 2 ¾ cups of milk (get the milk hot first,

I use the microwave)

KEEP whisking! The longer you whisk the

thicker the sauce will become.

Add in salt (It really needs it) pepper, and a

dash of cayenne pepper and nutmeg (trust

me!)

This is a roux, TA DA!!

Hi Guys!With the weather getting

colder one of our favorite

things to do is settle in with

a delicious winter dinner that

warms our bellies. One of Bari

and Harrison’s favorites is

Homemade Macaroni and Cheese.

OK, here comes the cheese part. The original

recipe calls for 3 cups of shredded cheddar

cheese. You can totally start with this or if

you feel adventurous, add different cheeses

into it. Whatever you have in the house. I

love using the last bits of cheese in the deli

drawer, it gives it a delicious taste.

Mix the cheese(s) into the roux, mix it well!

Pour the cheese/roux over the pasta, and

mix it up.

Pour the whole mixture into a greased pyrex

or throw away tinfoil pan (yay no dishes!).

Here comes Harry’s favorite part, cover the

top in bread crumbs. Use your hands to

sprinkle them on until the top is covered.

Bake the whole tray on 350° for approx. 40

mins, you want it to brown on top.

You are now officially the Mayor of

Yum City!

I would LOVE to hear from you and see how you did with your version!

On Sunday December 7th we all got together for our annual winter reunion and

what an amazing day we had! It was our best one to date and we loved seeing you

all just as much as we loved watching you jump into each other’s arms. What better

way to spend your day than with your camp friends playing arcade games, riding

rides, watching a 4D movie, racing around the go-kart track, challenging each other

in laser tag, taking photos and catching up with each other. We enjoyed our pizza

lunch while watching the summer slideshow and sang along to our favorite summer

songs. We even got the pleasure of hearing some girl side chants! How awesome are

those winter Lindenmere beanies? They will definitely help keep you warm during these

colder months. Reunions help us fill in the time during the long off season before the next

summer starts and with the turn of the New Year camp will be here before we know it.

We hope you all had a great day and for those of you who couldn’t join us you were

missed and we can’t wait until we are all reunited for summer 2015!
