Dinosaurs, a City, and Mountains… Oh My!

Late Friday night (July 28th) we returned from our week-long trip to Alberta. We visited Calgary, Drumheller and Banff. Things went very well with the kids and we all had an amazing time.

We spent the first few days seeing Calgary and visiting with good friends. Highlights included the Calgary Zoo, shopping, the farmers’ market, lots of pool time and a couple of great dinners with our Calgary friends.


Our visit to Drumheller (about 90 minutes from Calgaryslow down,

    Meow! Meet Mitsu!


    Hi everyone!
    Sorry its been so long! Thanks CCC and NofN for the reminders to post.

    So, summer is here, soccer has started for action girl, and WE HAVE A CAT!

    Mitsu is a three year tabby. We adopted her on June 14th and I'm happy to say haven't looked back since.

    She is:
    • very good natured
    • gentle with the girls (she bit Super Girl a couple of time, but...)
    • neat and tidy (only one accident and I think that was because we hadn't emptied the L-Box), and
    • a real joy for all four of us to have in the house.
    She has only managed two escapes, but spends a lot of time looking out the windows. She REALLY likes tuna as a treat (heck, don't we all?).

    More Mitsu stories to come as she continues to train us...
