The Balancing Act

Pics from Calgary trip 2009

We're back home and settling back into the routine of camp, soccer, swimming and lounging.  Here are some pics and highlights from our recent trip out west:

My niece in Calgary is only 5 weeks older to the Baby; these two little munchkins had lots of fun climbing, crawling, and dismantling the condo!

The Euro-Slide is one of the rides we enjoyed at the Calgary Stampede:  I was the loudest person coming down the slide.   Really scary.

The Boy had a pony ride at the Brittania Stampede Breakfast (unlimited free pancakes and beef sausages for any one who shows up - the line up was huge and the pancakes were unbelievable.)

We attended a beautiful wedding in Canmore, nestled in the Rocky Mountains. The lovely couple exchanged their vows under a cedar gazebo COVERED in jasmine, orchids and lilies.  Against the backdrop of snow-covered peaks, with an intoxicating perfume of tropical flowers: It was breathtaking.

Here's my husband and I at the wedding! In Canmore, every turn presents stunning mountain vistas.  The air is unbelievably clear and pure - we slept incredibly well, including my Baby, who slept a record-breaking 14 hours (in a hotel crib?!).
