We are back from our mini vacation to Edmonton. We had a BLAST! It was great to get away and spend time as a family. The kids traveled SO well. Thank goodness for out portable DVD player. That occupied Tyson the whole way up and back. The drive didn't seem very long as we made a few pit stops along the way. In Red Deer Ryan and Lizzie switched with Carson and I so that the men could take the older kids to the amusement park, while Heather stopped to feed the baby. Tyson and Lizzie had a great time on the rides, although Tyson was a bit too short to ride many of them. But the rides they could go on they enjoyed. Tyson said that his favorite one was the train ride that went through the 2 dark green tunnels. That evening we went to a Thai restaurant. The food was quite good, but for me I prefer what we make at home. And the bill was $$$ 70$ PER couple! Yes, we had a very hefty bill when we left that place! But it was nice to splurge on the meal and try something different. The next day we went to the waterpark. Tyson has been talking about going there for days now, and he was SO excited. We couldn't manage to get him to go by himself though. He is still a bit apprehensive about it. Maybe next year he will be confident enough to go by himself. The kids loved the wave pool too. By then end of 3.5 hours both Tyson and Lizzie were tuckered out! We had to carry Tyson back to the hotel because he was so tired. He had a GREAT time. We also managed to do a bit of shopping which was nice. I got a few new things for winter. I LOVE to shop, and Tyler is so patient with me. He took Tyson all over the mall while I browsed through all the stores. It was a great holiday for all of us!
