Henderson Lake

After we finished at the Zoo on Thursday, we all packed up our bags and went to Raymond. After waiting out a storm on Friday, we went to Henderson Lake in Lethbridge. We had a picnic lunch, played at the park and then taking pictures in trees became the theme of the day.

The Zoo

So after a great day at Calaway Park, the Zoo was our next adventure. We went the next day on August 5th. Not much to say other than we had another picnic, great weather and an overall pretty good day. Also, new this time that we had not seen yet were the moving dinosaurs. It made walking through the dinosaur area much more fun. I loved it. I'll post a few of the 100+ pictures that I took. I can never help but take tons of pictures at the zoo even though each time it is the same. I love the animals.

Calaway Park

On August 3, Kevin and Megan and Makayla and Danniqa arrived for a visit. We were so excited. They are two of only three cousins that the kids have and we haven't seen them for a year. They flew standby so ended up coming two by two but when they finally got here, the kids were thrilled and ended up having a great time together. Grandma Taylor came the day before to spend the time with us. On Wednesday, August 4th, we went to Calaway Park. A really nice lady in the parking lot gave us some discounted coupons which was a bonus so off we went to enjoy our day. The kids went on a lot of rides, we watched a magic show, we had a picnic in the park, got soaked on the bumper boats and enjoyed some cotton candy on the way home. The weather was great and we couldn't have asked for a better day.
