Jesson and I traveled to Canada earlier this month from the 5th to the 14th to visit his family. What a trip! We went to the Calgary Stampede, floated on tubes down a river, watched chuck wagon races, got family pictures taken, saw world class Show Jumping at Spruce Meadows, went to the temple as a family, took a day trip to Banff, and saw the new Harry Potter movie! We fit everything we could into that week! Below are some pictures from our travels:
Jesson got bored on the plane on the way there.
Jesson is 6'3" so you can see how tall these fences are.
Capone showing good form over the oxer jump.
Me with the winner of the Chrysler Cup, "Black Ice".
This is the Three Sisters range in Western Alberta. You can see it on the drive to Banff. It is my favorite range and I'm glad we got such a clear shot of it on Wednesday.
I made friends with a moose in Banff.

A buffalo we met at Stampede.
Jesson thought about joining the Mounties (he just wanted to wear their cool uniform!)
The chuck wagon races, the wildest part of Stampede and our favorite! 32 horses, 16 Outriders, 8 drivers, and 4 wagons all racing on one track at the same time!!
