Vacay!!

We had a great two weeks, with Cal off for the majority of the time!  He went into work a few mornings and afternoons and of course, answered emails all day long and put out 'fires' ... one of these days we're going on a vacation where he can't access his email or Blackberry ;)

The first week was bike camp in the a.m. and time together in the p.m. - playing outside, a movie, library, fun in the backyard, etc.

The second week we headed to Ol' MacDonald's Resort.  We had a fabulous week!  My parents joined us and we were all very thankful for the wonderful weather!  We had a few beach days, visited the animals many times, did some geocaching/hiking, Blake and Em rode the train and we rented karts twice.  A few stops at the park, lots of bike riding, some ice cream and a great time together :)  Loving my tan, I don't think I've had this great of a tan since I was a kid!!  We love this campground and plan to go back year after year!  It's great for kids of all ages, there are activities for all ages, including movie nights and tie-dying t-shirts, which I thought we'd save for future trips!

In between these two weeks, we attended a friends 40th birthday party (yes, another one!)!  We had a blast, thanks Mom and Dad for babysitting :)  And tonight Cal is at another friends 40th birthday party!! 

This morning we headed to Camrose for Cal's 3rd run in the 5 Peaks Trail Running Series.  He found this course quite difficult and perhaps more so due to missing his own runners and some of his running gear, which was left behind in the trailer.  (*the trailer is at CoachWorks for some warranty work).  Cal's brother Gerry also ran and the kids and I had a nice visit with Lesley, Colby and Jenna while the guys were running!  Afterwards we all went for lunch, it was nice to catch up with the Stony Plain Cameron's :)

Cal's back to work on Monday but we are off on another camping adventure on Friday!  This time to Carson Pegasus with the Hrdlicka's.  I can't wait to camp with my BFF!!!  

Have a great week!!
