On Canada Day we only had a short time to spend with Air in the morning before he went to work, so we headed to the paddle boats at Rundle park. We had so much fun!
except for Alice who apparently should have been napping instead… (eyeroll)
After that fun morning the kids and I headed out to Cold Lake for the rest of the weekend. They both zonked for the long drive. It was very peaceful.
We arrived at Grandma & Gusa's house in Cold Lake and got right to work with playing!
That night we all went down to the Lake to see the fireworks! So much fun… wish my kids weren't so freaked out by the loud bangs.
Well, wow. Looks like not much happened in November around here? Makes sense tho, seeings how that was Air's first month back to work full-time in two years. We had a lot of adjusting to do.
We got some awesome 1-year passes for all Edmonton rec centers and attractions (because of said disability insurance) so we have definitely been making use of those! We love swimming at the pools and going to the indoor playgrounds ↓↓↓
↓↓↓ Alice continues her habit of falling asleep while eating dinner.
↓↓↓My children are most adorable in their church clothes//Ames walked directly into some wood sticking out of a shelf at Lowes and fell on his back on the cement floor…I get the feeling that we are lucky his injuries weren't worse than a little scratch on his cheek ↓↓↓
↓↓↓Yes, another week at church//and another ↓↓↓
↓↓↓ I invited all my friends over for girls night when the new season of Gilmore Girls came out on Netflix. I was so excited that there were actually quite a few fans of the show! Also they brought the best snacks in honor of Rory and Lorelei. I need to do this more often!
↓↓↓ Ames gave his first talk in primary and did awesome! We were so shocked and impressed that he actually went through with it
↓↓↓ And one more video of Alice sleeping at dinner to call it even
Ok, so the honest BEST part of the entire month of November 2016 was the weekend trip that we made to Calgary to make our children Citizens of the United States of America at the embassy there!!! I am so happy to be a dual-citizen, and even happier to know that my children are dual-citizens of these two great countries too.
I didn't get a photo at the embassy (duh me), but we went to see Santa at the big mall there afterwards ↓↓↓
Then we stayed with our friends, the Harkers, that night and seriously just partied all night with those guys.
