Chapel

For the last chapel of the year, a departing faculty/staff member is asked to give the farewell message.  I was chosen to do it this year.  I was honored to be given this platform to share a bit of my story, a few words of encouragement, and to say farewell to a place that has meant so much to me!

Chapel Band...playing outside!

I'm sure I was making a very profound point right here!  :)

Here's a link to the audio of my message if you are interested:

Final TriS

One of my favorite things to do at LCC was to lead TriS with Marlene.  It was so much fun to connect with our groups of American Study Abroad students.  We always seemed to get the best groups (in my opinion!), but this spring the group was really above and beyond all our others.  I bonded with many of them and am hopeful that we will stay in touch in the future.  

For our last TriS event of the year we went to the beach for a pizza party.  Unfortunately it was way too cold and we ended up going to my apartment halfway through the evening.  Not what we planned, but memorable and fun none the less!

Outdoor shot...don't we look cold?!

A picnic on my living room floor!

Travis brought Marlene and I scarves from his trip to Istanbul.  We wore them like babuskas would...since we were his TriS moms!  

A fun shot from the ground up!

I love these peeps!
