Lost Horse Creek Waterton Lakes National Park

Lost Horse Creek is where Sam's family would go when they went to Waterton when he was a kid. It was my first time there. Nali LOVED it. The water was cool but refreshing considering how hot the weather was. Ella had a great time sitting in her bumbo enjoying the water.








Cameron Lake=Cameron Codd and Family!

So some of you older BYU 105th Ward Alumni will remember the Codd family! well at Cameron Lake we ran into them! We hadn't seen them in about 3 years! Cam, Beckie and family are in Lethbridge for the next month while Cam does some med school stuff!

So below are some of the pictures we took at Cameron Lake. We took a row boat out and found a little beach. Nali had a great time playing in the water. She loved it when Sam would pull her around. She also found it amusing when her bottoms got a little water logged in the process. Ella had her first drink out of Nalgene bottle sippy cup and spent the afternoon entertained by a Lays bag. Nali managed to find a rock that she thought looked like a crown. We had a great time up there.

Bertha Falls-Waterton Lakes National Park

After horseback riding we hiked to Bertha Falls. Bertha Falls is named after my great aunt Bertha Eklund. Nali walked all by herself. It's about 3.5 miles round trip. This was her second time to the falls and Ella's first!




Nali Horseback Riding in Waterton

This is Nali on her horse named Squid. She gave it the name Ginger as it's middle name because it looks like Ginger from Black Beauty.


We only saw a few bear droppings.

Sam's 30th Birthday!

For Sam's 30th Birthday we went golfing. We rented a cart and took Nali with us. We borrowed some clubs for her from a friend. We had a great time. Nali quickly lost interest when she noticed that there was a pond on the course. She told us "Those are bullrushes!" Sam and I looked and each other wondering where in the world she learned that...Probably from Stanley and the great big book of everything.

I had my best outing of the year. It's only the second time I've played a round this year but I improved by 9 strokes...I've been taking a few lessons and I guess that it's helped.

Oh yah, and I beat Sam on his birthday...good thing I got him private lessons for his birthday. I should mention though I had 2 re-do's that he willingly gave me. He wasn't made/upset that I beat him, more so impressed that I was doing well! What a guy eh!!

Nali took this picture of us.

Flowers!

The flowers below are my back yard! They're beautiful to look at! So these flowers are called clamadisis...but I don't know how to spell them and everytime I try and google them I get the word Chlamydia...which obviously they are not...so 50 points to whoever can spell it right!
