I love my city...

and here is why-
tonight I headed out with the kids to see the sheep-
our city "tourist attraction" is that they have sheep that they have "mow" the lawn at one of the big parks. funny, I know, but we have to go and see them every once in a while, and pick them leaves that are too high up for them to reach- "for dessert", or so my kids say.

so, while we were there feeding them, a guy with a tractor and a big wagon came by and asked if we wanted a ride. for sure! so we went on a little tractor ride. then he asked if we had been to the museum. well, not lately, and all the buildings were open, and we could go in for free. sure thing! so maggie sat in a school desk- doesn't she look ready to go!

the kids sat in an old fire truck, they pumped water from old pumps, went in old houses, and ran amuck. good times. oh, and posed for many pictures. by a green wall, and a red wall. fun was had by all, including mom! pity I hadn't dressed them nicer, actually combed Sadie's hair, or really looked for Maggie's sandals instead of just letting her wear her rubber boots, yes, with a bracelet on her leg. oh well, this is real life, people. real life, in a fun little city.


oh, the reason why all this is happening is because the Alberta seniors games are going on here right now. yay! - oh, except the sheep, they are always there.
