Lake Kachess Camping

Hmm....so, I'm realizing that its been almost 2 months since I last posted....guess that means we were having too much fun, guess that also means I have a lot of catch up to do.....so......here we go!

We took a family camping trip to Lake Kachess on the hottest. weekend. ever. It was over 100 degrees which made us extremely thankful we were near a lake. Luckily the heat did not bother the kids and Callie was in heaven with the lake. Liam was extremely happy camping, in fact, I don't think I've ever seen him happier. To be outside all day and be able to have his sister's undivided attention, he was so happy. We enjoyed the experience of having absolutely NO routine, NO priorities, and NO obligations.

We lucked out with a very secluded campsite and it allowed the kids to just explore with no fear that they would accidentally run into another campsite. Not really sure why we even brought toys, I don't think we really played with anything besides sand toys.

This is not the best picture but, by far, my favorite. Callie is helping Liam through the woods....what an amazing sister!

There was much rock throwing over the weekend....we tried to throw the biggest, the smallest, the most, any rocks we could get our hands on. 



This was about how far Liam went in the lake the whole weekend but Callie was more than happy to swim with Preston. She is a bit of a fish!

Introducing.....Callie Lynn Graham

Our baby girl has finally come to join our family! Callie was born on August 10th at 6:34 pm., weighing in at 7 pounds 1 ounce and measuring 19.5 inches long. She is a absolute delight and Preston and I can't seem to get enough of her. Although the laboring went quickly, the delivery proved a bit trickier for me and we ended up needing to deliver by C-section. Callie was extremely healthy and was ready to leave the hospital even before I was! Due to a few complications, Preston, Callie, and I ended up staying at the hospital for 5 days. Luckily Preston has so much time off of work - don't know what we would have done if he needed to go back after a week. We can't seem to say enough positive things about the nursing staff at St. Joseph's hospital. They were amazing! Although it was not fun staying at the hospital that long (especially since we only packed our bag for one night) we got a lot of extra help with nursing and overall care of Callie. Both Preston and Call...

Sun River 2018

For mid winter break, we headed up to Sun River for the week. As always, it did not disappoint! The kids had a blast spending the week with Grandma and Grandpa, all their cousins, skiing, and playing in the snow. This year we started with no snow on the ground and ended with a blizzard that made driving home very tricky. Liam stayed home with Grandma while Callie and I skied. Although it is always hard to be left behind, he loves his Grandma so much and they had an absolute blast together. I'm also realizing that she took all the pictures so I have very few with her...major bummer! We celebrated these 2 boys on this trip.  When there is this many kids, you not only take over the whole run but there it is also very difficult to figure out which way to go.... Grandpa and his gang Pretty soon we won't all fit on one couch. Unfortunately our sister/dad ski day did not go as planned. Sarah took a spill the day before and was not able to ski with us for ...
