Chelan

Mia is not  drowning.  She has learned to put her face in the water.  She is constantly saying "mom, want to watch me put my  face in the water?"  

So pleased with herself .  
Kennedy enjoys playing with Brian.
Kyle with Luke and Paul.
Paul and Luke enjoying the Juke box at the pizza joint we went to.
Beach Time.
Shave ice time.
More Pool time.
Our time in Chelan is coming to a close as we take off tomorrow morning to head back to Utah and prepare for Julia to come next week and our family reunion in July.  It has been wonderful.  Our first week was fun with everyone here.   I enjoyed getting up and exercising with Mom every morning.  David enjoyed going golfing with Kurt several times.  And of course pool time, beach time, reading  time, card games, and a lot of video game time for the kids as well.  
This week has been a little different.  I stayed here to watch the kids as Mom and Dad headed over to Seattle to pack up and complete the sale of their home.  David went and helped for several days.  
I have tried to keep the kids busy as Shannon and Bronte left for Girls Camp, and Kurt has been back and forth from work every day.  
A high light for the kids was Brian and Kyle stopping by yesterday and swimming for a while.  
Thanks for  having us, Kurt and Shannon!  We can't wait for Bear Lake and EVERYONE being there!

Sounds like so much fun! Don't you just love being able to spend time with family? How nice of you to watch the boys while Shannon was away. The pool looks very inviting.

It feels strange to have family getting together in Chelan and not to be there too. I'm glad you've had a good visit. Good for Mia putting her face in the water already.

THANK YOU, Kristie, for holding down the fort for us! When Bronte and I got home today, the boys kept telling me how much fun they had with your kids. I am so glad we are all going to be together again in a week - otherwise, the kids would be going through serious cousin withdrawals!
And congrats to Mia for being such a brave girl. :)
