The Nationals

This weekend in Canmore is the 2011 Haywood Cross Country Ski Nationals.  It's a big celebration where a cross country ski track is set down Main Street and a bunch of different events and activities are held.  The Nordic Centre (where Rob works) was responsible for making the snow and installing the track for this event.  So the night before Rob had to pull a 16 hour shift until they were finished building the track. 

Saturday was a beautiful warm sunny day, so we packed up the boys to check out the festivities and Rob's handy work.  When we arrived down town we happened to see our good friend and Olympic Medalist, Sara Renner (well ok, she doesn't actually know us...) who offered to take our picture for us as we were attempting the self timer.  She was carrying her one month old baby, and was impressed at how calm we were for having twins. 



After checking out Main Street, we met up with our friend June; she's no Olympic Medalist, but we love her all the same.  She gave me a break from carrying Liam and we went for a nice walk down by the river.



Looks like it's another nice day out there today...the warmth and sun has arrived. :)

    Nice...I can't look at that river without thinking of the mosquitoes and having a laugh. We just came in from an awesome campfire in the backyard...veggie dogs and smores included. It kind of made me wish I had a blog of my own to prevent me from being too lazy to run in and get the camera!
