chelanigans.

this was kenzie's first teknotherm retreat and caleb's third. i loved this one the most. beautiful chelan, my beautiful babies, and beautiful company (as in people). thank you, tekno, for going above and beyond all expectations. it was heaven. highlights?

an amazing room with a gorgeous patio leading straight to the bluest lake drenched by the yellow sun.
an excited boy who wanted to wear his swim trunks 24/7.
 that same little boy saying "are we gonna go swimmin'?" 350 times in one day. and, yes, he did say "swimmin'" and it was the cutest.
strolling miss makenzie all around town while she basked in the sun.
watching sweet sophia and caleb b play together.
having someone else clean up our messes, make our bed, and fold our towels.
watching a couple hours of food network while kenzie napped.
seeing caleb walk boldly into deep waters (with his dad right behind him) and carelessly jump into the pool over and over again with no fear ... he is part fish.
early morning sessions outside with just me, God and the stuff He made.
watching my brother-in-law give a great presentation then run around with caleb. such an amazing uncle.
hanging with my sister, who made caleb gasp the biggest gasp ever when he saw her drawing at lunch. and when caleb asked her if he could go swimming and she said "if your mom says yes." and he turned to me and said "mom, say yes."
