What did we do this summer besides play ball? We did lots. We went and saw a few games of Oilers hockey try outs. D is really a Calgary Flames fan . The big draw of the day, was the fact that Ryan Nugent Hopkins was going to be there. We got his autograph and a photo too. So D was happy. (Unfortunately we do not know who this guy was signing autographs. ) I cannot post the photo of Nugent Hopkins, as I am making a Christmas Gift with it. Sorry.

Well I am unsure the West had a real summer this year? It was cold most of July. However when your a kid and a large body of water is in front of you-- it is hard to resist the urge to at least test out the water temp. On a hot day it is called "taking a refreshing dip" on a cold day it is called"polar bear swim". As you can see by D being the only one in the fountain here, it is a polar bear dip he his experiencing!

Storms. Man did we experience 2 wild/wicked storms in Red Deer,AB. We even saw tornadoes forming in the sky. Brent and I so love storms. Below is D holding up some of the hail that covered the ground. Notice he is wearing his fall coat. The temperature went from being 22C to about 7/8C within minutes when the storm blew in. It was cold.
