Stampede Weekend


Hello Everyone!

I hope you are all having a wonderful summer :) Heat waves and all!

The title of this makes me chuckle but it seemed most fitting. We are not actually big fans of the Calgary Stampede even though it is a worldwide attraction. It seems to bring out the scandalous side of people and it breaks my heart that the level of infidelity rises greatly in Calgary during the 10 (?) day event. One day when Taylor is a bit older we will most likely take her to do some of the kiddie things, but for now we just like to enjoy the free Stampede Breakfasts that get put on throughout the city! So, our version of a "Stampede Weekend" haha is taking Taylor to a Stampede Breakfast! Free pancakes and sausage and juice O My! (It is not super thrilling but we did have a fun time and it was just a really nice weekend!)

Ok so Ian doesn't quite look awake yet haha I don't think either of us were but here we are ready to head into the big city (hehe) Taylor was really ready for the day :)


On the drive (gotta love a bad selfie!)



See, a beautiful day!


At the breakfast. She must have been thinking.. "Mom and Dad, this is a lot like every other time I am in my stroller." 


BUT then we went to Petland! (All the pictures that really show her excitement are too blurry because she was showing her enthusiasm, but I assure you she was happy happy!)






That was Saturday and then Sunday we just hung out in the backyard after church but it was still a fun time!

So these are not stellar photos BUT I am pleased to have captured some of Taylor's firsts :) 

Happy summer! With love.
