Family fun at the Calgary Tower

 

2

We finally remembered to book the pass for the Calgary Tower from Wycliffe!!

Church is not too far from downtown, so we took a picnic, feasted and then headed down for some fun.

Little ones in cities is fun. The buildings seem so high, there's cars everywhere and even a C-train for us.  Hosea immediately declared from the top that we were giants! John kept bah bah bahing at everything he saw through the glass.
Fun times.

And cos we're such lovely peeps, we then rode the c-train through the city and back.........happy happy boys.

Zay's bedtime prayer last night began.  Thank you Jesus love me, thank you we rode train bus. 
Mine was along the lines of thank you for entrusting us with these precious ones.

We had a treat of supper out this evening, with the double treat for the kids of their being a balloon entertainer making all kinds of cool creatures.
I'd love to report that all balloon creatures are tucked up in balloon beds (away from humans in human beds before anyone is concerned about safety!), but sadly some will just have to live on in memory and picture!

A few from today, because I'm loving these crazy days with these precious ones

It was Heidi's last day for camp so we dropped her off and then spent a happy day tramping around the park too, bumping into her in several places, walking up the hill, at the rides and when she was delivering mail to the rectory!
We finished up riding on the trolley car which runs through the car park.  It's the sort of thing that there is never time for, so today we made time.  Hosea is convinced that the man that drives it is called the motor bike, and the kind motor man doesn't seem to mind!
Heidi and I will blog her weeks highlights some time next week I hope,  What an activity packed week she had.  She loved it.  And it's so good to have her home tonight and to look forward to spending the day together tomorrow.
Any one know the breed of chicken?  I want one.

Stampede breakfast

This morning, Tom went in late so he could drop Heidi at camp and the littlies and I could go to our local stampede breakfast. 

They has a lot of fun playing cowboy, roping cows, milking cows, riding ponies and of course, eating pancakes!

 

Love these kids so much.  Check out Phinn's smile when he ropes the cow!
