Lake Wenatchee

yesterday was plain awful
you can say that again!
yesterday was plain awful! but thats. not now. that's then.
remember Annie?

Anyway, it was 93 degrees INSIDE our house on Wednesday!!! uggghhhh.

We went to lake Wenatchee and it was actually cooler in Eastern WA than at home in Western ! On our way home saw a reader board... 106. Wow. I left Tucson to avoid weather like this. But we had a wonderful time at the lake. No pictures just memories in our hearts...

Annah being the only one to swim to the little island.
But all of us loving swimming in the cool water.
Ethan and Ryland trying their hardest (in life jackets).
Toriah saying "I need googles; this is just the coolest place to explore."
Finding a nearly dead fish and getting to hold it.
Swimming to a huge rock with Ry on my back then going back for Ethan.
Sitting along the shore with Hope and Halle saying "wimming" over and over,
thinking their splashing was swimming. Not so great memory...Tennyson spotting another
dog and knocking over the camping chair which was halfway in the water, right on top of
Hope and Halle which was so scary! They still loved the water and had so much fun.
Seeing some friends from Tae Kwon Do. Reveling in God's beautiful creation.
It was was a wonderful day...until we came home to the hot HOT house.
There are worse things though, and we are very blessed.

We do have pictures from last weeks camping trip to the same location though!



the island, you can see the rocks to right
teenage toes; mine are blue :o)

It is so pretty there. It is hard to believe it is that hot! Here in Colorado it has been cooler and wetter than normal. However, we still got up to the mountains today to enjoy some hiking and God's glorious creations!
