Cheyanne's Visit

Cheyanne came to visit from July 15 - July 24. The girls had a blast, they had to fend for themselves this year tho' as I was working all week. But Maddie knows the city by bus route so they went on a few adventures, and then at night we would find things to do. 

The night Cheyanne arrived was the last night of Stampede, and because it was the 100 year celebration the fireworks were across the city. On the grounds the finale is a firework show, and 4 other places around the city had matching fireworks. From Nose Hill Park you could see all 5 at once!!! That was crazy kewl!!! We made popcorn, and headed to the park. Maddie Logged in to the radio station so we could hear the music too!


We had a shopping day and went to Peter's Drive Inn for lunch.


We picked up Mack one day and went to Butterfield Acres, The girls favorite spot since they were little :-) 
feeding the goats, they were better behaved this year, last time they surrounded us and were very aggressive.
Feeding grass to old Nelly

Sheep!! Baa baa
On the Hay ride... too short and no Pumpkins lol ( we always went on the hay ride to find pumpkins in October )
3 little Piggy's 
cones full of food to feed the goats
Then one night we went to Drumheller.
The girls had to fight over the cute Dinosaur
we went on a ghost walk tour and ended up at a building that used to be a morgue....
creepy...... 
we had a bonfire one night, and I showed Cheyanne how to write with a sparkler :-)


 and then the 9 days were over ..... 
They went too fast :-( see you next time Cheyanne :-) I will have to get pictures from Maddie of their adventures on their own.
