It's been a heck of a summer!

WOW oh WOW! I have been sitting here on this Sunday evening thinking about the summer. Lets make a list of what was awesome about it...
  • Sara and Ryan's Wedding - Canmore is a beautiful little mountain town and we had a great time photographing the lovebirds on their perfect day. The backdrop was gorgeous and the event was stunning.
  • Shannon and Eric's wedding - comfortable and beautiful are the best 2 words to describe this event. Photographing these 2 was a joy. They are so in love and were so excited to be married and start their life together.
  • Hamilton Family reunion consisted of  riding bikes off the dock, body-ball, too much food and some great catching up with my cousins. 
  • Amazing trip to Seattle: rode a ferry, walked about 15 miles, delighted in attending a glass blowing shop demonstration, shopped, ate fresh seafood on the harbor, got lost on city transit, read a book in the park, relaxed in a beautiful hotel. It was a great trip!
  • Got a new puppy!! His name is Stanley and he is a pure bred German shepherd and I LOVE him!
  • We are currently putting up our fence. It is a big project and probably the only negative thing about having a house in Magrath - the lots are HUGE! Therefore it is a HUGE undertaking to contain it all. Stanley needs a home so we build a fence! :)
  • Time at the ranch was super duper! We tubed down the river many times and Kayaked down the ditch all the way to Payne lake. Brent tipped 2 times and I almost died laughing. It was really funny. It was a beautiful quiet and I saw parts of my backyard that I'd never seen before. We even saw some pelicans really close up and they are huge freaky birds.
  • I re-discovered and Brent discovered Waterton Golf Course wing night. Monday nights are sooo delicious. 
  • We relaxed at home and just enjoyed sleeping in, reading books both professional and for fun, went to matinee's, played with the nephews and niece, played some seriously good rook (I got 2 300 hands in one game people - that is almost unheard of for those of you who don't know) and fell in love a little more! :-)
Overall it was fun and went just too darn quick. I am very excited to get back into the swing of school and routine and more sleep! I have a great class again this year and will try to be more diligent in my blogging regularity.
Mucho amor mis amigos!
