Camping in Kananaskis

A few weeks ago we went camping in Kananaskis. We had lunch with Daddy at noon and he suggested we go camping for the weekend. Great idea! But I had a lot to do before we could leave. The kids were in the car at 5 waiting to go, they were so excited. We finally made it out of town at 7:30pm. We got to the campsite at 8:45 and were able to set up the tent with no problem since the sun doesn't set here in the summer until around 9:45 or so. The next morning we went on 2 different hikes which the kids really enjoyed. We found a playground at a campsite close to us so the kids played there for a while. Some more kids joined L & L at the playground and they played together really well. They played chase and they dubbed Luke 'Ninja Kid' because he was too fast for them to get. The weather could have been a bit better but at least it didn't rain on us. It was in the upper 60's and at night it was in the 40's which was kind of chilly for us. Overall we had a great weekend and I am so glad that the kids like to hike and camp.

End of School

Here are Lauren and some of her friends from preschool. She loves them a lot.

This is Luke and his teacher Ms. Novello. She will be his teacher next year too which will be good because he won't have to 'get used to' a new teacher. Plus I really like her:)

You may be wondering why she is holding a cucumber. Well I was in charge of the teacher gift for a few of the parents so I put in a cucumer because she is as cool as a cucumber. Some nuts because the kids drove her nuts sometimes. A packet of seeds because she helped their knowledge grow and some other odds and ends plus some wine and a bookstore gift card. She was pretty happy with it.

Lauren's school had an end of year party at Bowness Park and the kids had a ton of fun. Unfortunately I didn't give Lauren her allergy meds and her eyes were really bothering her. These two were her teachers this year. Ms. Amber and Ms. Krishna.
