Great Start to the Holidays

It has been a great last two weeks. Mike and I had a fantastic time with his parents and are so happy that they were able to make it down to Calgary this summer. The first week we were out and about in Calgary. We went to the Farmer's Market, shopping at Cross Iron Mills, walked around Prince's Island Park, went to the Calgary Zoo and drove out to Banff for a day. Mike and his dad also went on a very long bike ride downtown and back.

At the beginning of the second week we headed to B.C. with Mike's parents to visit friends. It was a very long drive, but very beautiful. Mike and I went to Granville Island, Grouse Mountain, Stanley Park and the Vancouver Aquarium. On our last day in Vancouver we went to White Rock. I loved being near the ocean and it made me realize how much I miss being around water.

After driving back from B.C. we spent some time relaxing and playing games. Mike's parents headed out to Banff and Lake Louise and we ended off their visit going to the stampede. Here are a few pics from our trip to B.C.
