I say "z", you say "zed"

After much too long, we were able to take a quick trip to visit my mum's family in Calgary, Alberta Canada.  It's been five years since I've been up.  Too long.  But it was great to see everyone, and finally, everyone got to meet Sam.  Here are some of our favorite times...

Bedtime.  Sister's sleepover, all the way! (and Mischief and Mayhem thankfully stayed in Puyallup.  The girls were amazingly well behaved.  I mean - they're always this good... cough. cough.)

 The girls had a great time blowing bubbles and doing sidewalk chalk for their great-grandparents to see.

 Boom Boom and Baba with Sam.   

 Grandpa showing the girls his "toy car".  Aka - the Smart car.

 Waiting for the C Train with my parents and Auntie Cheryl.  On our way to the Calgary Stampede!

 Who knew we'd all look so sexy in our cowboy hats?

 The girls watching a little rodeo action - the grandparents watching a little climbing action

 Cheaper to feed than draft horses... 

 Brooke and Erin.  The girls all love the military section of the Stampede.  They could have stayed for hours.

 Love those girls!

 My favorite shot of the whole trip... (Erin)

 4 generations.  So lucky to still have my grandparents.  I have such wonderful memories of them growing up, I'm happy to have my children make some as well.

I also bought a year's supply of Canadian chocolate bars...  We won't wait five years again before the next visit!  Thanks to mum and dad for driving up to see us.  The girls always love to see you! Thanks to Auntie Cheryl and Uncle Jim for playing with, and loving my children and for the wonderful chance to see all the family at your house.  Thanks to Grandma and Grandpa for letting my children play with your "snatcher", for playing "whale" and for making delicious pedahe.  I love you all!
