This past weekend some of our staff took a few girls on a camping trip. It's been quite awhile since I've been camping, and I was really looking forward to it! We did all kinds of fun stuff: rock climbing and repelling off a 100 ft. cliff & tubing down the river (it was supposed to be a "lazy" tube, but ended up being more of a "panicky" one :) We ate about 1,000,000 smores (each) & enjoyed a few campfire games. It was fun just to be together without a big agenda. It was a good reminder to me that these girls, although at times they may seem very "grown", are still just figuring out who they are and who they want to be.

"Congratulations, Graduate!"


Vacation at Last!

Our after-school program finished up a few weeks ago, making it the perfect time for our staff to head off on a much needed vacation :) I was able to go to Florida for a week with my family, which is a rarity getting us all together for that long with our conflicting schedules. It was very hot most days (Chicago seems like a breeze compared to that), but we still managed to have a good time. We went to Universal Studios, Sea World, the Kennedy Space Center, and the beach (can you guess...that was my great idea!) We were busy, but it was a fun time! I could get used to this. I vote to make it a tradition!
