Family Campout fun!

Our Alberta vacation continues! We had a bit of time after our trip to recover, had a birthday dinner and cake on Thursday for Mike, Ari and myself. Friday we were off to central Alberta! We dropped Jasper off with the friend that agreed to watch him for the weekend, and then we met up with some of the family at a park in Spruce Grove. We couldn't check in at the campout until 6:30, so we had a little pre-party at a splash park:-). We went to a McDonalds on the way out and then made our way to the camp. All of us were pretty impressed at the cabins, they were quite a bit nicer than we were expecting. It was a really fun weekend! Lots of swimming, visiting, one campfire but it wasn't very long because of the thunder showers. The mosquitos were not fun but other than that we had a great time:-). Adam loved the park, Nathan had moments where he felt a bit left out but he did have moments where he connected with some of the kids of the cousins that were close to his age. Lynsey had fun with Julia and Ezra, even had a sleepover with Julia on the the last night. As always, glad we went!

We have been taking it easy the last few days, doing laundry and sleeping a lot. I think I am over the jet lag by now, I have slept a lot the last few days! Yesterday Brian took the kids to Mike and Annie's in the afternoon while I stayed back with Jasper, and then we all went for a little walk at COP. We are hanging around Calgary for a few more days and then Thursday morning we are off to Salmon Arm to camp in a cabin with our friends Bobbi and Jer. I am sort of nervous about that because I feel like we are so unprepared compared to our usual camping trips, but we also don't usually camp in a cabin where we are so close to grocery stores either. We are going to do a lot of food last minute, probably order pizza one day. I think it will be fun, I just hope it's not too hot!
