Winter in Chelan (Christmas day 25-30)


The day after Chrismas Jacey and her family arrived from Florida, and we headed for Lake Chelan. It in not only a lovely summer vacation place, but a wonderful place to winter (if you are in pursuit of truly winter weather). Grammy and Grampy blesses us with a rental home large enough to house our croup of 11 people and two dogs.


Cousins enjoying a movie.

Avery and Miri had a day at the house with just Grammy and I and they thoroughly enjoyed the time together!


We had an outing to Chelan Estates Winery and picked up some fabulous bottles of red wine. Good wine is one of my favorite parts of vacation!




About 10 minutes away was a fabulous tubing/ski hill for the kids (and grown ups too).  Chelan had been having more sun and less snow than usual, so as you can see in our photos. the snow is a bit on the thin side...It has been a sparse year snow-wise in all of Washington, but we had a great time anyway. I don't think the kids even noticed, Icy hills just make you go faster. All three of my kids LOVED the huge tube hill, as did their cousin Madeline and all of us adults too. 


















He's such a goof!





One evening, just as it turned dusk, it started snowing right at our house. The kids were excited, especially the Florida girls!.










Chelan has ducks in winter too. 






Sledding in town.

































Until next time.
