Hooray Alex! Welcome to Camp. I'm so glad you found your way here and I hope it fills up your inspiration bucket before your next big adventure. (I've never had bison jams, but Yellowstone is high on my list and I definitely want to adopt more of that powerful, regal bison energy! 🦬)

YAY ELMA! I'm so excited to have you join!

King's Landing is absolutely perfect. I was actually trying to incorporate M.A.S.H. into our activities because it felt SOOO important in our formative years 🤣 (also congratulations on your sweet new silly gosling 🎉)

Aaawww and yaaaaay! I'm very excited for another virtual space to hang out with you! Thank you for being here even though you feel shy and I promise you won't have to dance with any boys (unless you want to) or be put on the spot. And if you want to wander off in a field all by yourself, you absolutely can 🤣

Yay Molly!!! Thank you so much for your kind words. I'm so excited you're joining and your spirit animal as Felicity makes me so happy! My burning question is: Long haired Felicity or Short Haired Felicity? 😉

Oh I’m a loyalist to Ben first of all. That’s my most important thing to note. 😂 and I love Felicity with both kinds of hair. I’d look atrocious with hair that short but people like Keri Russell and ahem someone I know named Tami can pull it off!!
