Fairmont Getaway

This past week we went to Marble Canyon to my parents time share out in BC right by the Fairmont Hot Springs. It just ended up being Bryan, Emilie and I but we managed to pack it full of adventure to say the least. On our trip down we got in an accident but we walked away from the roll without a scratch. We have been counting our blessings ever since. Once we got everything sorted out were were able to have some fun in the mountains and go to the hot springs, visit Invermere, relax, go on a hike and enjoy beautiful British Columbia.


Here is a picture of the car in the wreck yard when we went to gather some of our belongings the next day from it. It was pretty smashed up but we were so lucky no one got hurt.


This is the place we stayed and the rental car that we ended up getting

One of many to come I hope!

I have made it my new years goal to learn how to use my camera better...I have had it for almost 2 years now and its one of those cameras that it looks like you should know what your doing with it but i don't. So here is to the start of trying to get better at it!


Splish Splash I was taking a Bath!

A Burr Christmas!

For Christmas this year we were able to spend it here in Edmonton with our Burr side. We had so much fun with everyone. We were missing Carley and Judd sadly but they were in Hawaii with the Payne's this year. On Christmas Eve the Burr extended family always gets together. This year we met at the Bearspaw Chapel and ate great food and played a bunch of Minute to Win it games. Bryan, Emilie & I slept over at the Burr's house Christmas Eve and then opened presents up there in the morning. Cam made us some crepes that were so yummy next. Christmas day at the Burrs is a bit different because it is also our brother Tom's birthday. So we had his favourite supper (Cafe Rio Burritos) and had cake and celebrated his birthday later that day. Claire found some fake mustaches that she gave him for his birthday. They looked hilarious! Even little Oliver was sporting one! Christmas is just the best!

A Baldry Christmas

We were able to celebrate Christmas a little before and a little after this year with our Baldry side of the family. Bryan, Emilie and I went and visited my parents and Amy and Sarah & Logan a week before Christmas and we were able to do many fun things while down in Taber. We hit up the AquaFun Center, some went ice fishing at Chin Lake, Sledding, many puzzles, a few movies and lots of good company. After Christmas my parents came up to visit and we got to celebrate the season all together at Nate and Whit's new house! It was so fun to have everyone there as we dont get to be together as much as we would like to be!
