Aaaah Chelan

Here are a few pics from our latest, and one of our last, trips to Chelan. Hannah loves going to "The Pine Nest" as it's called. She went swimming, to the beach, ate chips, swung on the swings and drove around in the golf cart (well she didn't drive it, but she rode shot gun) and, of course, got lots of attention from Nanu, Papu, Leesy, Uncle Tony (one of her favorites), Aunt Jilly, Uncle Rick and Auntie Meegs.


























We also got to see Cody and Carmen and their new baby, Adeline, who was born 10 days after Emmett. Hannah liked playing in the water with their 2 yr old, Jackson.
Rees and I got to go to the Prayer Center in Winthrop for 24hrs and let Hannah stay with Nanu & Papu. It was beautiful, refreshing and so encouraging to be there after 8 yrs of having not visited. "Peaceful" takes on a whole new meaning there and catching up with old friends (especially without a toddler - you know, uninterrupted conversation and all) was food to our souls.
It was so nice to get away and rejuvenate (even with a newborn) and we came home feeling ready to tackle our stuff and get ready to move to Central Asia.
Also of note was getting to spend the 4th of July with my family - all my siblings were in one place! Shannon did a seafood boil and jambalaya and my mom made blueberry pie - mmmmm mmmmm mmmmm! We are an eating, drinking family and had a great time together. Here's to good food and great company!
