Waterton

This was our first time in Waterton and we fell in love with this park. The town is filled with family activities and is still small enough that Sophia could walk down the sidewalk without getting run over by people. We stayed at the townsite campground which was walking distance from everything including a play park which Sophia loved.
We camped with Sophia's friend Payton and her parents. We did a lot of hiking which Sophia really enjoyed. I thought we would have to carry her on every hike but she insisted on walking by herself...except on the last hike. She was tired and slept in the sling I carried her in.
Sophia wanted to pet all of the animals and didn't understand that they were wild so we havd to really watch her. 
Great time in Waterton and wee will definitely go back.
There are deer walking through the town all the time. This was an amazing experience. The deer walked 5 feet away from Jason and Sophia.
Watching the ground squirrels from the trailer.


Red Rock hike








Sophia sharing with a chipmunk. We had to tell her not to give them food.

Sophia liked the canoe...

...but hated the life jacket.


We found out that Sophia loves water and is so happy to sit and throw rocks all day. We did this alot. Every time she saw water she had to go see it.

Canada Day

Sophia is 18 months!!!






The weekend of Canada Day we went to our trailer for the weekend.


Sophia loves helping to work on projects at the trailer. She has great hand eye coordination and has been using a screwdriver for a while now.

Making smores with Daddy
 We came back on the Monday to see the parade and enjoy the activities that they have here in Sherwood Park. It was such a hot day so we didn't spend the whole day in the sun.


Ready to enjoy the parade


Proud to be Canadian!!!
