I threw Brad's clothes away!!!

Yes...along with all the other things we've been up to these past few weeks one important thing I forgot to mention was that I threw a bag of Brad's clothes away. Now considering other than work clothes the guy has about 2 bags total of nice clothes. So, when said wife throws one of those bags away, the bag with perhaps the cutest of the cute and nice clothes, it was pretty lame. He was great and didn't even get phased by it. But, we did get to go out on a date and choose some new clothes for him (which was fun for me cause we don't have money to go shop ever so this necessity shopping trip was fun)

And...my Brad-with help from our awesome friends-moved us from one house to the next with a broken rib. Such a guy.

Several years ago my parents took us all to this heaven of a place called McCall Idaho. Well flash forward several years and 3 chambers kids later and they planned the trip again. I hoped with everything I had that it would somehow work for me and the kiddos to join the rest of the Nelson clan. The stars aligned and we made it for the trip (no Brad...boo) but it was awesome and I am so so so glad I took the kids and joined them. I can't even thank my sweet parents enough and my great siblings and their kids. It's super hard to be on a vacation by yourself with your kids (even though you are surrounded by people) and they just stepped up and helped me and loved us and it was such an amazing time. So here is the picture journey: 

McCall is in Idaho. The pretty part of Idaho.

Here is Grandma Ruthie and Grandpa Robert with the whole group. I'm loving this picture.
                                       
Plenty of time for games. We love Ticket to Ride, Legretto, Play Nine, Kings go Wild, puzzles, and Pit.

At night. This cabin had a bedroom for all 6 kids and their families.

 Icecream in town. Ez's fell off the cone the second they handed it to him. Don't worry, i picked it up and we ate it anyway...dirt and all.

 Lola got lots and lots of love. My cute neice Sadie asked her mom is they could keep Lola and then her mom could get pregnant and give the baby to me. Nice plan!

 All the cousins before we left.

 So glad I borrowed this baby Bjorn. It saved me as we got on and off the boat and up and back to the water.

 Uncle Brett and little EZ.

 Best cousins.

 The pontoon boat.

 In the day.

Most of the group went river rafting.

 We stayed back and had our own good time. That's my cute neice Morgan. She is in India now improving the world!!

 She is so talented at doing their hair.

 The Chambers family!

 Cute mom and dad.

Perhaps next time we go to McCall Brad will make it and we will be living closer!
