One Last Trip to the Mountains...

How beautiful on the mountains are the feet of the messenger
who brings good news, the good news of peace and salvation,
the good news that the God of Israel reigns!
Isaiah 52:7

We made one last trip to New Mexico for the 7th session blessing. It was two days of work (cleaning camp) and praying with counselors and fun. I am so thankful for the counselors and staff that gave up their summer to teach kids about God and to spread His good news.
Here are just a few more pictures of the cool...beautiful mountains and God's servants of the summer of 2010 at Camp Blue Haven.
Blessings on your day. Amy

The next few pictures are of a ranch that sits on the road not far from Blue Haven. It is a wonderful looking place and I love to see it every time we round that corner into that valley. Ah...lovely.

Here it is: One box of Betty Crocker Red Velvet Cake mix. 1 semi sweet choc. chips 1 small Half and Half- (use half a cup) 1small carton of whipping cream 1 package of cream cheese Half cup sugar Bake cake (follow box directions), let cool and crumble.

Enjoy.  Alaska memories. Love this fat Santa above. Thrilled with how this little wreath turned out. Happy Christmas decorating! Remember: Your family probably does not care if your house looks like something out of Southern Living. They love the traditions and old ornaments and chipped Christmas mugs and plates. Our kids sure do. It is hard when we compare what we have to other people's "things" or decorations. We are all so richly blessed. I say, just don't do it. I am trying to hav

Camp Blue Haven-2012

Mountains green, sparkling streams, every morning you greet me. Pine trees tall, waterfalls, blue skies canopied o'er me. May I know as I live and grow, God forsakes me never. May His love from above bless Blue Haven forever.  And what a blessing it was this summer to be back up in the cool mountains with so many people that we love.  As I reflected on this special place I thought about how big of an influence it has been on our children and our hearts.  At camp time slows down. There are so few distractions. The focus is on fellowship, enjoying God's creation and growing in knowledge of Him.  It has been a place to teach us what our life in this world should be about. It has also been a glimpse of what I think heaven will be a little like.  It has taught us to stay close to one another, to be accountable to each other and to live an out loud life for Christ. No holding back. Living it. Because of the encouragement and growth that happens here we are bett
