Our main holiday this year was a trip to Alberta. We left at 4:30 a.m. on a Monday morning thinking that the kids would nicely go back to sleep in the van for a few hours once we started driving. Well, not so much! We almost had to stop for breakfast in Hope! We didn't and actually made it to Kamploops for breakfast at A&W by 7:30. Then it was time for some gravol and a good stretch of the driving. We made it to Mount Robson park in the early afternoon where we stopped for lunch, some exploring and walk down to Overlander Falls. The kids did great in the van and we made it to Edmonton in one piece!

The first few days of the trip were spent with Sid and Holly, Liam and Ivy. The weather was hot and so the slip and slide was a big hit!

| Owen doing his own version of a slide. |
 |
| Jocelyn was also enjoying the water, taking a slide into the pool. |

One of our day trips was out to Jurassic Forest, north of Edmonton. It was a great place to go for a walk through the forest and check out some dinosaurs. There were on sensors so they moved and made noise when you walked past them. The kids had great fun running to see which one would be next!

| Nothing like a popsicle to cool off after a hot and busy morning! |
The next few days were spent at Rich and Janelle's, along with baby Myah and their dog Snoopy. Besides the rain/storms we had while we were there, we enjoyed some good meals, a trip to the waterslides/indoor pool and sitting around the backyard campfire making smores!
