This Week...so far

Eric just got a facebook account, so we were trying to get a picture of him to put up on it. This was one of the trials. It's a good one of Eric, anyway!

Mom and Dad came in Saturday morning. We left a couple of hours later to go up to Stehekin. You may remember from other posts that Stehekin is a town at the other end of Lake Chelan. It is about 55-60 miles uplake from us. It is a town that you can only get to by boat or float plane.

AAAhhhh! Our driver fell asleep at the wheel! He wouldn't let go of the steering wheel, though.


Before falling asleep

Grandma and Wade

Auntie Leah!

We checked out the house the guys are working on. Just a foundation in this picture.

We stopped and saw Uncle Eric in his cabin. He launched rotten eggs at us. They didn't hit the boat, but it was kind of cool seeing them break as they hit the water and the yolks flew back up in the air.

The waves were pretty rough, so you had to make a decision. If you sit more in the front of the boat there is less wind, but it is much more bumpy. The back of the boat is much smoother, but colder and windier. Mom chose the back of the boat, and buried herself in the blanket.

We spent a little time checking out Stehekin. There isn't much to do this time of year without a ride, so we ate at the restaurant and checked out the visitor center and post office.

Sunday we all dressed in red and black. I asked if Jason wanted to match us, and this is what he came up with. :) (He didn't really wear that to meeting.)

Sunday was Auntie Cammy's birthday. She was in Kuwait so the boys wish her a happy birthday!! Happy Birthday Cammy!!! We love you!!! P.S. We just talked to Cammy on Skype. She moved from Kuwait to Iraq Monday night. She is getting settled in to her room and her new job there. She says the food is much worse than it was in Kuwait, and the scenery is not as pretty.

Ron and Sharon had a potluck for mom and dad down in Moses Lake. Dad had a chance to see all of the people he met when he first professed.

Tristan and his friend Gracie.

Hi Wade!

We drove up into the hills around the lake and caught this awesome view.
