Visiting in Lethbridge

Greg, Dawn and the girls were in Lethbridge on the weekend for a Highland dance competition so we thought we would take the drive down and see them. We made it just in time to watch Courtney do her final dance and then we waited with them for the results. Raya got a ribbon for participating and both Makenna and Courtney got second place in the sword dance. I wasn't sure what that was and I was a bit concerned. Turns out that they place two swords on the ground and they dance around them. Way to go girls!!

Makenna, Raya & Courtney
Carter was a little bored waiting, so he decided to take some pictures with my camera.

He got a pretty good one of Uncle Greg!

After the competition, we grabbed some take out and went back to the hotel and the kids went down to the pool and water slide. I was a bit shocked that the pool wasn't really little kid friendly and the water slide was REALLY fast! Mark said that his stomach dropped on the last corner every time.

I tried getting a picture of someone coming out of the slide and this is always what I got. Not even sure who this is!
Greg and Mark were soon in a competition themselves to see who could 'skip' across the pool the furthest. When Mark came out the one time, all you could see were legs! Fairly entertaining.


These two don't look like trouble at all!!
Logan could just barely touch after coming out of the slide. He had Mark, Greg and Courtney help him a number of times.
Carter wasn't interested at all in the water slide.
He preferred the hot tub.
Everyone played hard for over and hour!
Just before we left, Auntie Dawn got a little snuggle with Carter as he explained to her about a show on teletoon.
I really thought the boys would crash in the truck on the way home.......no such luck!
Thanks for the visit guys! Let us know when you're coming back this way.

I saw the girls dance at Focus on Youth. They are good! Raya just makes me smile, she is such a doll! Courtenay is so serious, and Kenna is just Kenna!!! Good job ladies! I enjoy watching you and look forward to the next performance.
Did you have fun at the pool boys???
