Lake Chelan!

We had a wonderful family vacation in Chelan. Each year we do not exchange "gifts" at Christmas with my dad and his wife...instead we create a memory in Chelan. This year we did a great job of that. :-) We are really lucky that we don't have to worry about our other kids (the dogs) while we are gone because the grandmas took turns watching them:-).

Here we are at our stop in Eburg. We realize that it is a little out of the way but it is such a powerful piece of our family. My father was the first in our whole family (extended as well) to go to college and he attended Central. My brother went there and met his wife there. I went and met Aaron there...so it is wonderful to go back. We do laugh at the fact that it looks nothing like when we went there!

Here are the cousins...Malia adores them...Ava will once she is a bit older. There is about 2-3 years between each one.

This picture has Kenzie on the dock and Chad on the big trampoline. It is awesome because we could watch them right from our deck!


Chad and Dad loved the hot tub...well everyone did to be honest.
Poor Ava looks so pitiful in the bjorn...I swear she likes it!

The whole family! We were so lucky because Sage, her mom, Jack, and Ruby came for a visit one day! I think Malia is in love with Jack...they played the whole time. Sage was nice enough to take this family photo with everyone in it!

The girls taking a break from playing...it was a busy 5 days!

Dad and I at the winery...that was an adventure I will never forget. We all decided to walk...up a highway...to get to the winery...in the heat...did I mention I will never forget it?
