For the longest day of the year we packed it full of a few of my favorite things.
* trees. oh how I love trees. the smell. their oxygen. their greenness.
* hiking. uphill. on rugged trails. surrounded by trees.
* family. love my kids and husband.
* picnic. yeah. this one didn't go as planned as we got kicked out of our spot due to it being "private property". eating from the back of the van and making it a tailgate party wasn't so bad.
* seeing something for the first time. Lake Louise. I've always wanted to see it and today was the day. First time for all the kids too!
(i must reluctantly tell you that this photo is courtesy of Tery. His colour was so much better than mine and I could not refuse to use it.)
* seeing a bear. We really wanted to see one today and we were leaving the park and I was saying this. A minute later Ter spotted one and we all got to see it! There was a lot of cheering and celebration.
(this is not a photo of the bear we saw. I took this from a poster before we left thinking I would crop and doctor it some to make you believe we saw it. But I am telling the truth we did see a bear I just did not get a photo of it)
* getting a photo of all of us together. this doesn't happen very often seeing as usually I'm taking the photos. love this.
* Day trips. the Loewen speciality.
