6th anniversary 7-19

I can't believe how time flies! John and I have now been married for 6 years. It doesn't seem like that long ago that we were just moving here and starting our life together. We have accomplished a lot though I think in this time. Bought 2 houses, 2 cars, 3 dogs, and I got another degree and I think 4 jobs!?!? Hopefully I stick with this one! :) And now we will have a new member of the family very soon. We are both very excited to see how our lives change! Anyway to celebrate we thought it would be fun to go to Chelan with John's grandparents for the weekend. It was fun to just get out of town and be by the water. John's cousin Ryan also came. The weather was great so it was nice to have a pool and a lake to jump in! On Saturday we got up at 3:30 (I don't know if I want to do that again for fishing!) so that we could get the boat launched early. Here is a picture of the water when we started fishing:
Not too light out yet! We ended up being on the water for 3 hours or so and not even getting a bite! I think the most exciting thing was catching bottom a couple times. At least we didn't lose any gear.

After fishing and breakfast John and I headed out to walk around town. Here is a picture I asked someone to take of us by the water in downtown Chelan:You can really see how big I'm getting in that one!

That afternoon we went swimming for a while in the lake and in the pool. The lake is SO cold. It took me a while to get used to it! The pool was much more comfortable. After swimming we took a walk and sat on a bench near the water. Here is us sitting, sorry I look like a drowned rat.



and one of the view from the bench we were sitting at:



John's grandparents then took us out Saturday night to Campbells for dinner to celebrate our anniversary. It was really nice and good food! Here is us before we left. Sorry it looks like I'm grabbing myself, I think the wind was blowing and I was trying to keep my dress down! (It was SUPER windy that afternoon! Actually one jet ski broke loose from it's buoy.)


Anyway we had a nice drive home yesterday afternoon and just took our time. It was fun to get out of town and now we are back to normal life! I just spoke with John and he is probably working really late tonight to make up for all the missed work on Friday! I hope I get to see him at some point tonight. I hope everyone had a good weekend!
