The four of us went to visit my in-laws last weekend, and it was a great (although totally packed) 4 days of fun. On Sunday we decided to take a trip to Banff, but the weather was uncooperative... so we opted to drive through Kananaskis instead. The mountains and scenery were still gorgeous, regardless of the pelting rain and gloomy skies.
Our faithful roadies, Chimpynuts and Burrito.
Munchkin crashed early on during the drive.
We took a slight detour to Dead Man's Flats to see my brother- and sister-in-law's condo... I'm extremely envious of their patio's mountain view :)
Munchkin travels so amazingly well... I don't remember her complaining the whole day.
Monster on the other hand, was a different story.
The clouds finally decided to clear up on the last third of the trip.
This is my favorite shot.
That's a mischievious look if I've ever seen one!

His new favorite activity? Jumping on our bed. Or his bed. Or the couch. Anything with springs, really.
This kid would die for a trampoline.

Oops, I did it again. Fell off the productivity wagon and didn't get it done. And it's not that I've been super horribly busy or anything either, although I wish I could use that as an excuse this time. All my ambition and and creativity just went poof. Plus I kinda feel like I got stalled a bit because we went and ordered new furniture for the living room [YAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY :)] so I want to wait until it arrives and figure out the arrangement before making up my mind of what to put where on the walls. And I still haven't even decided what to do in the rest of the house... oh well. I guess I'll just sit tight and wait for that magic nudge from the creativity fairy.

Hi. I'm Melissa.
Welcome to my humble abode on the interweb!
I'm a wife and stay-at-home mom. My life is not exactly thrilling, but it is my life. And I choose to love it. Every day.
My dream is to become a professional photographer (one day...), but for now, I only aspire to gain experience and learn learn LEARN.
I write about my life here and there, post things that catch my fancy, and random things that distract me.
I appreciate any and all feedback, I just want to improve on my fledgling photo skills, and on myself in general.
I hope you enjoy.
Emails are like chocolate chip cookies, made of ones and zeros.
If you are feeling generous, you can send one to me
here.
