First week!



So, the first week is almost over. 
It was a busy one!!

We arrived on saturday evening, so we didn't really do much.
Sunday was mother's day, 
We had breakfast at Denny's, eggs, bacon, ham, sausages, toast and pancakes! After that Tess and I went to do some shopping and in the evening Ralph, Kara, Eveline, Henk, Hayden and Olivia came over for dinner. 
It was a lot of fun to see everyone and Olijfje for the first time. 

On monday we went to Banff, Lake Louise, Field, Natural Bridge, Yoho National Park, Emerald Lake and the Kicking Horse river. It was a lot of fun because there was a huge amount of snow here!!! I loved it and offcourse I got stuck to my knees. Not used to being in the snow I think. 
At 4 we went to the hotel in Lake Louise, our rooms were pretty small but after Tess and I redecorated the room it was fine. 
We had dinner in the small town and went back to the hotel... HOT TUB TIME!! 
The hot tub was on the roof in the middle of the mountains, so awesome!! 
 

After the kids got to bed we played Canada-opoly. It's the Canada version of Monopoly ;)
At 10:40 pm we went to sit in the hot tub again. To bad the clouds were there otherwise we could see the stars..
The hot tub closed at 11 pm so we continued our Canada-opoly... Scott was out of the game pretty fast, Harm was next and Tessa and I were still in the game.. Tessa won eventually... big time!
We went to bed at like 1.30 am but it was fun!!

Next day we went to Banff town. I shopped at Lush and Gap.... love it!! Banff is soooo cute!! 
We went back to Calgary and shopped at Tommy Hilfiger... Shopping days like that are gooooood. 
In the evening, Tessa, Jennifer, Jenny, Meryl, Kara, Monica, Alicia and I went on a Ladies Night at Tantra. In a limo!!! 

There were strippers there but they were hilarious. It was fun though. We all got little tipsy.... even I! I fell down when I tried to open the car.... funny!
On the way home I think we drove Scott crazy... we were kind of loud I guess..

Wednesday we had a calm day at home, relaxing.

Thursday Tessa dropped us at Market Mall. Shopping!! And Lush again!! Don't you just love Lush? I do, and I'm a official addict! 
In the evening we went to Eveline and Henk and have dinner there. 

It's Friday now (in Holland it's saturday, I am aware of that) and we went to the Zoo with Jennifer, Jessica, Tessa and their kids...

Tonight a bunch of people are coming and we'll have a fire and make s'mores.. 

Back soon!!
