Canmore post-wedding

I fell in love with Canmore. I guess it's more like I re-experienced my love of hiking in the mountains with my kids. It's been so long since we've had a good hike and canmore did not disappoint. Eden was happy strapped to my back, though adding 30 pounds to my back was not easy. The older girls were good and Raine was very determined to do it. So we did two challenging hikes and they all made it, even Chris! On one mountain we reached ice & wanted to check out a high up cave but I figured that wouldn't be a good parenting decision so we'll wait a few years for that challenge. I'm not sure what that was called as there were no signs. The other hike was the Grassi Lake hike, easy route. Though I must say it was not all that easy. And there was a bear in the area warning sign half way up (thanks for the late notice!) but we decided we'd keep going cause we had our own bear scarer, Miss loudy pants herself, Raine. And once we got to the lakes & waterfall it was so worth it. Clear waters, giant rocks and caves. And we got to watch some climbers as well. I had such a great time.
