HAPPY FATHERS DAY!

"pat his cheeks and give him what...a great big kiss"!!!! Justin is a wonderful father and Mackenzie just adores him.

Oh yah!!! Compliments of his talented wife.

It looked beautiful and tasted even better!!!!

FUN FUN FUN!!!

While in Calgary, Kenzie and I had the opportunity to visit with Elisa and her daughter Lauren. We went to a place called Coffee and Screams. It's set up so that parents can visit with their friends while the kids play together in this huge playroom. I love that they charge $4.00 for each child and the adults get in for free! We had a wonderful time and look forward to seeing them again soon!!!
Lauren is such a cutie pie! Kenzie gave her lots of hugs and kisses!

A TRIP TO THE CALGARY ZOO

As soon as we turned into the first area of the zoo Mackenzie broke into a run. We could hardly keep up to her!

She did however pause for this cute picture.

And for those of you with a different palate.......a pallet!

This was my favorite area of the zoo. There were giraffes, hippos, fish, and a very friendly warthog.

Isn't he beautiful!!!

If you're hungry for a hunk of fat and juicy meat

Eat my buddy Pumbaa here because he is a treat
Aaaare you achin'(Yup, yup, yup)

Foooor some bacon?(Yup, yup, yup)

Heeee's a big pig(Yup, yup)

You could be a big pig too

Kenzie loved the fish.

This little guy put on quite a show for us. This was one of my favorite poses.

Justin took this picture of Kenzie in the pitch black in the nocturnal Australia cave.

Little did she know that this is what was staring back at her!

A walk in the rain forest. It was so humid in there that we were soaking by the time we left.
It was hard to get a picture with the lions until we ran into this TAME fellow!

Doesn't that look like the best lunch?

Dad's two favorite girls. Doesn't the flower look like it's actually in my hair?

Doug can look forward to seeing these bright birdies on his newly landscaped yard, or so Justin says!
Someone was sure ready for a nap after that great adventure! We had such lovely day that it was hard to say goodbye. Olive Garden was the next stop so it really wasn't!!!

NOW THAT'S A SMILE!!!!!!!

Aunt Kathy took this picture of Kenzie after she finished licking all the plates clean! This picture is a great example of why I can't take my eyes off her! She's a BEAUTY!!!

A TRIP TO VERNON

I hadn't taken a trip to Vernon in over a year so it was due time! The best excuse for going was Jordan's 4th birthday. We had a wonderful visit filled with partying, swimming, jumping, cards, and great food! Mackenzie was absolutely exhausted at the end of every day which left the evening for me to sit and visit. Thanks Jared and Andi for a wonderful time!!!!

PLAYING WITH MY COUSINS

Where did everyone go?

JORDAN'S BIRTHDAY PARTY

Present's are the best things about birthday parties!

A VISIT TO DAVISON ORCHARDS

Mom and I took the kids to Davison's. We had a wonderful time petting animals and running our guts out!

The playground was a favorite.

Icecream was a must! Jordan and Nathan hardly made a mess and then there was Kenzie!!!! "But Mom I always eat the bottom first. Why would this time be any different?"

Going for a stroll with Grandma.

Feeding the animals lasted about 10 seconds!!!

"Excuse me could we go a little faster?"
