22 days

I can't believe that it has been 22 days since my last post, time flies in the summer and now back to school for the kids tomorrow. Can you believe it.

10 days of those 22 we spent on a "family summer holiday" yup I said family. Being a rodeo family we don't often get time to get away in the summer as a family.. This summer was an exception and hopefully a start of something new.

We started our holiday on Thursday the 13.. We left after Hayzes hockey school and went as far as Swift Current, Sk. We stayed in a cute little campground and got up and headed to Moose Jaw. We had decided to do the tunnel tour on our way to Manitoba. The city is so rich in history, the old buildings are really great as a back drop to pictures. I took some great shots there. I have a lot of updating to do so I won't share them all but we did have a fabulous time in Moose Jaw. ( link to the tunnel info)

We learned some history as well on the tour. It was interesting to listen to the kids when they told people about it. They had obviously learned a bit while having fun.

From Moose Jaw we headed to Manitoba.

We celebrated Kenny and Shawna's 40th year.

they had a huge party and a fabulous supper for all of us.

thanks so much for the hospitality.

From there, on to Tobin Lake to do some house boating.

It was very pretty on the lake. The weather didn't cooperate with us unfortunately and the fish did not come out either. We had a ton of great food and we did manage to get a few card games in and the kids had a blast playing in the sand on our own private beach.
