We planned a camping trip with Pat and Alicia Crampton and family this weekend but the weather was not cooperating. Since it was cold and rainy on Friday, instead we went to an indoor playground and then went out for dinner. We headed out Saturday morning to a campground by Exshaw. The rain held out for the most part and we were able to spend most of the day out in the open.

At one point, we needed to put up tarps to protect us from some of the showers that fell.

August 12, 2009 - Lira's Belated Birthday

On August 7, Lira turned 3 years old. Here are some latest pictures of her.

Also, this past week, Lira and Nova competed in the Alberta Kennel Club dog show. They were both entered in Rally Novice and some Agility classes. Although, we were unsuccessful at the agility, both dogs got their Rally Novice titles in 4 trials. Nova got one First in class and 2 thirds. Lira just scraped by with pretty low scores so there will be some work to do with her before we advance to the Advanced Class.

We went to Peace River for Chris' cousin Chad's wedding this weekend and after a night of partying, the boys got some much needed rest on the long ride home to Calgary.
