Many of you heard of our adventure to Waterton but for those of you haven't, hear is the exciting story & pics to go along with it. Jason had been dying to go snowshoeing so one Sunday in January we packed all the gear & set off for some snow which could only be found an hour & a half away in Waterton. So after driving through the blizzard (it was nasty, I kept my eyes on my book) we decided to stay in the town site instead of going up to Cameron Lake. Just so you know there was a ton of snow & still snowing but it really wasn't cold. After dressing everyone in their snow pants, tuques, etc we put Liam in the pack back & Dom in the sled. I think we were about 3 blocks away when the wailing began. So back we went into Kilmorey Lodge for a hot chocolate & treat & then we were back in the car. It was the most expensive hot chocolate treat I've ever had but we can laugh about it now, right Jason???
We are a very busy family this semester........Jason is still playing volleyball every Tuesday evening & he is taking a spinning class bright & early Thursday mornings. I am taking a weight lifting class every Tuesday & Thursday evening & a spinning class Saturday. The boys are both registered in swimming lessons & Dom is in gymnastics (
he can do one heck of a summersault!).And to add to our busyness, Jason & I, the elite athletes that we are have entered some races. Jason has registered for his Triathlon in May - it is a super sprint - run, swim, & bike. Go Jason go! I am going to do the Melissa's run in Banff this September with Susan, Krista & her sister. It is only 10 km but apparently a killer hill.
On Family day long weekend Amanda & Jeremy came to visit. On the Sunday we took the whole family out to Fernie for some skiing (not sure what we were thinking after the Waterton fiasco).
It all worked out quite well - Jeremy & Jason skied the morning while Amanda & the boys & I
hung out in the lodge & outside as well. After lunch Jeremy &
I hit the slopes (& I led Jeremy & I to some places I should not have been), Jason took Dom out on the slopes (he loved it, he didn't want to snow plow because it slowed him down too much, & Amanda hung out with screaming Liam(he did sleep for a couple of hours)...........bet you can't wait for that baby Amanda! It was a lot of fun & everyone slept well that night (Dom was asleep before we left the parking lot).
I have previewed my stuff & I need to work on the formatting stuff but I will figure it out, at least you can see pictures! Stay tuned for our weekend in Canmore with Aimee!
