Eli's 1st Birthday


My nephew, Eli, just turned one this past week. He loved his cake! He got some sweet gifts and he even got a boat ride. What a lucky one-year-old! Life is good!

I had the privilege of having some amazing friends from Echo Ranch Bible Camp visit me a couple of weeks ago. Annie Rider (blond) has been a long time friend and a fellow Juneau roommate. She now lives in Chicago near her family. Caroline Cox (brunette) has been a counselor at Echo Ranch for 2 years and become a close friend. She is from Oxford, but was born on American soil, so she too is a fellow American!

Mishele & I


Here are Mishele and I at Lasson Volcano National Park. It is just an hour from her home in Northern, CA. It is beautiful, but very different from Alaska.

To California and Back Again

Well I have made a very quick trip to California to visit my wonderful friend Mishele and her family. She was the friend who MADE me fill out my BFA application...which is why I am leaving for Germany in one week from today on July 29. Enjoy the pics.
