My first trip to Lake Chelan was the best way I've ever spent a Labor Day weekend. My best friend's family invited me to go with them and although there were some downs, the ups were even better. This trip was important because I have never had more fun in my life! Getting to Lake Chelan was the hardest part of the trip. I sat in last period glancing at the clock anxiously, it felt like everything was in slow motion. The bell screeched and I zoomed out of the school, we were supposed to leave right
Hola, Reyna and Alejandro are always happy to hear how you and your family are doing.

Eden’s musical journey and passion began in Brazil, where she was raised. “My parents were hippy missionaries,” Eden described. “I was born in Argentina and grew up in Brazil.” She explained that her mother was a teacher in Chelan a long time ago and she has family in the Wenatchee area.

In my childhood I have had a lot of obstacles, stress, and life lessons. An obstacle I had to overcome was dealing with family problems. With everything so violent I would normally just leave or something, but I didn’t want it to happen at all. So, I would try to break it up and have them just leave each other alone.
