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!
