For my family vacation we headed up to the lake house in Washington. On our way we briefly stopped by Leavenworth to show Fernando the German town. And of course ate a Bratwurst.
Leavenworth, WA
A typical store in Leavenworth, with hundreds of nutcrackers
After passing through Leavenworth we made it to beautiful Lake Chelan!
It was super hot, but a relief compared to Houston
Here’s how we spent our time…
floating
Boating. With lots of kids on the bow
and on the back
roasting mallows
wakeboarding
eating pizza in the park
posing: all the grandkids
making rockets
posing with our rockets
blasting off the rockets
posing for the photographer
eating
cliff jumping
couples wakeskating
old skool kneeboarding
digging for gold
drinking guava
crashing really hard
soaking in the hot tub
eating the twins birthday goodness
laying out
playing in the water
playing in the sand
punishing each other
monitoring inappropriate swimsuits
did I mention eating?
After Chelan, we headed back to Seattle…
Ballard locks
