Chelan

The last weekend in August, David, Samantha, Kacie and I hit the road for Lake Chelan. 



All needing a mini vacation to a warm spot. And all of us had never been to Chelan which made it the perfect spot. We were able to get a nice little condo for our stay. We split the condo rend four ways and all bought food to contribute to cooking. We got in late Thursday night and after a late night Walmart run we had a bunch of food for the weekend. 
The weather was 95 and sunny the entire time we were there. We did nothing but lay in the sun, eat and then maybe swim before laying in the sun again. Or sometimes we were laying in the sun while floating on the lake. It was perfect. And the best part was we all enjoyed spending time with each other and relaxing. And David didn't go crazy with three girls all weekend.

We also ate so much food. It was nice having two other girls to cook with. Things went so quickly every time. And David loved being able to BBQ. 

There were long heartfelt conversations about potential suitors for Samantha and Kacie. But the highlight of the weekend was David sharing his financial wisdom with the girls. They talked about saving for their future and why it is important to get out of debt. So I guess you could say it was a life changing weekend. 

On Saturday, we spent three hours at the water slides. So much fun, I think we all found our inner kid for those few hours. Even David, Mr. anti-aquatic loved it. Our favorite was the group water rafting slide. That was visited many times throughout the day. 

Samantha enjoyed walking up and down the hills to get to the water...
David also found great entertainment in waking the none-morning-person, Samantha up. 
Sunday morning he piled random kitchen items on her. She didn't wake up.

Sunday morning we checked out of our condo and headed for Leavenworth.

  After a couple hours and lunch in Leavenworth we headed home. Home after a laughter filled, relaxing, completely successful weekend.
