Next Stop... Lethbridge

We headed to Lethbridge Friday morning and Emma was in a foul mood right off the start. She complained about the all curves in the road and demanded that her Daddy stop turning the truck so much as her blanket kept falling off her lap. For you prairie folk, this does not sound like a hard request, but for all of you who reside in B.C., you know there is not a staright road to be found. After the road thing, she started in on how uncomfortable she was and that her bum hurt. Every 10 minutes she asked if it was time to get out and stretch. To top it off, Emma only slept 25 minutes of the 10 hour drive (and yes, we have a DVD player... that did not seem to help too much that day). You can imagine how happy Dann and I were when we saw the "Welcome to Lethbridge" sign!!

Although this photo was taken in Vernon, I blogged it just to remind me how cute my gal is and not to hold the bad travel day against her... hahaha!

Emma loved the bubbles that were shooting out of the bubble machine and was trying to catch them before they popped on the ground.

Grandma & Grandpa were very surprised to find Emma ringing their door bell. Although our visit was only for a couple of days, it was still nice to be able to spend some quality time with my parents.

We took Emma to Henderson Lake for some play time and she loved the dock and wanted to jump on it, as she liked all the movement. The guy fishing on the dock might not have been that impressed about all the movement, as I am sure Emma scared away the fish on a few occasions...

OH WELL!!

We were able to meet my friend Peggy's new little girl over a cup of Java. Annya is a beautiful baby and very well behaved. Emma loved her and was practicing her "big sister" skills.

As you can see, there was always time for "Tim Horton's" on this vacation (isn't there a commercial that use to say that???). Although Dann could do no right in Emma's eyes for most of the trip, she did not hestitate to pose with her Daddy for the camera.

Not only did we surprise Grandma & Grandpa, but we surpised Great-Grandma too! She was happy to see us and of course, Emma stole the show!!
