Road Trip - Jasper, Alberta

We had beautiful weather for our Jasper National Park experience. We saw bear, mountain goats, deer, elk and more. We enjoyed paddle boating, a picnic, a short hike, time on the beach and shopping around town. 

Kyle and Hailey - July 4, 2015

Kyle and Hailey were married in Drayton Valley, Alberta on July 4th.  It was a memorable and beautiful wedding outside at Hailey's family farm. Kira's dad performed the ceremony as he has done for most of his children and grandchildren. A storm briefly delayed the ceremony but did not affect the personal and relaxed atmosphere as the couple exchanged their vows.

'The Singing Contest' - Puppet Show

Watch grandpa's puppet show performed today at the Living Spirit Centre called 'The Singing Contest'.  Great show! I wish Cale could have been there to see it ;)

I Heart NYC!

What a FANTASTIC trip we had to New York City!  We stayed in the Crowne Plaza, above the Hersey's Store in Times Square.  We had a great view from our corner room looking down the street to where the New Year's ball drops.  We took in some outstanding Broadway shows: The Lion King, Stomp and Matilda.  We also got to a Rangers vs Canucks game at Madison Square Garden.  We saw sights like the Empire State Building, the Statue of Liberty, the Brooklyn Bridge, and Rockefeller Center.  We were thrilled to see some of the most famous stores in the world like Macy's as well as all the high end shopping on 5th Avenue and 34th Street. Cale loved the three story Toys R Us as well as the M&Ms Store and FAO Schwartz.  Even the little things like the cab, the ferry rides, the subway and street vendors were exciting to experience.  It was VERY cold though.  The record cold even froze over the harbor.  It made standing outside a challenge, but it was worth it for Ellen's Stardust Diner and the Broadway shows.  We also loved the Museum of Modern Art and all the little pubs and cafes.  If only we could have stayed....  We'll get back someday!!

 

 

 

 

8th Birthday - Drive-In Movie Experience

This year Cale's birthday party was a drive-in movie experience.  His guests created cars to "drive" to the movie, picked out their treats at the concession stand and watched How To Train Your Dragon 2 on the big screen.  Thanks to everyone who made the day so special.
