Trip to the Canadian Rockies

The month of May was a busy time in the Anderson Household!!! We sold our house, bought a new one, and left for a 9 day trip to the Canadian Rockies to celebrate our 10 year anniversary...all in about 3 weeks! When we came back we finished up school, soccer season, and then launched right into swim team season. So, that might explain some why I have not had many new posts these days.

I hope to go back and label each one of these photos...but for now let me just give you an idea of where Evan and I went on our trip. We spent most of our time in Banff. When we arrived we found out there was one more day of skiing before the slopes closed for the season. Evan was thrilled....I was...well...a bit nervous. However, I did accompany him to the slopes. The views at the top were amazing...although each time I skied down...I was so nervous. I had a few wipe outs...but it was worth the experience!

We did lots of hiking, saw many beautiful lakes, waterfalls, amazing mountains, neat wildlife, lots of snow, and much much more! We took a beautiful drive to Jasper and stayed there for 2 nights and then made our way back to Banff and then to Calgary to fly back home. It was wonderful to enjoy each others company away from the kids. Quiet dinners had become so foreign to us!

We are so grateful to our parents who took wonderful care of all our kids while we were gone. They did not miss us in the least. Hope you enjoy viewing some of our pictures. They are such a wonderful testimony of the majestic hand of our Creator!
