Friday is Diving Day







This is Mr. Photography's new spring time sport. He choose to go diving. He has always loved diving. He sits and watches it on TV! There must be something about this sport for him. On Friday nights he goes to the big pool in the city and does 1.5 hours of diving. And that whole time--- there is a smile on his face. I have never seen my kid so happy. This week he managed to get the confidence to go off the 3 meter platform (last photo) by himself. Considering he is afraid of heights this was a huge step for him.

OMG!!! I tell ya, that Easter Bunny knows just what to bring Mr. Photography! I think blogging will take a back seat by him now. That Easter Bunny is so cool. Happy Easter Everyone.

Spring Break

We've just returned from our spring break! It was wonderful. We started out by returning Brent's dad back to Prince George. We stayed and visited with family for 3 days and then headed in the van and drove to Banff/Canmore. We drove thru Jasper/Lake Louise. A very picturesque drive normally, however it was not great driving- very slippery for about 20 miles of the stretch. Banff was beautiful. Canmore is my new home, when I win the lotto. After 1 night in Canmore we went onward to Calgary. That was fun. We went to the zoo. Ate at yummy Nic's. Peter's drive in was also very good. Can't forget Tom's House of Pizza! Mr. Photography got his thrills from the hotels water slides. It was all fun and went way too fast.

Missing!



This lonely mountain goat welcomes you to Mount Robson Provincial Park. Here is the story according to Brent's dad. There was once two of them, however someone sawed the other one down and stole it. So now there is one! If you come across someone's property and a mountain goat that looks like this, you will know where they got it from!!!

Canadian Rockies




Always a pleasure to drive thru, the Canadian Rockies. Of course you see the famous 3 Sister in Canmore and the mountain that towers over Banff. There is tons of snow on the mountains this week. They are still getting snow daily. Yuck

D's Favorite Day




This was Mr. Photography's favorite thing to do in Calgary. He loves the zoo. We saw the baby gorilla, and mini alligators. Something about small/ baby animals make them cute, even if they are on the dangerous side!
