Canada Day at Fort Calgary


After 5 years of living in Ottawa and taking part in the Canada Day festivities that swallow up the capital, we were interested to see how our hometown of Calgary would celebrate July 1st. We decided to try out the free-admission family event at Fort Calgary. There were tons of games for the kids, as well as a petting zoo. Needless to say, Scott's favourite part was pointing and hooting at the animals.




He got close enough that his pointing turned into poking. Even though he loves to see them, he usually backs away when dogs get too close, so we were surprised that he was so comfortable with the sheep, goats and pigs.





He still didn't like it much when a goat would stray into his personal space. He backed off quickly with a concerned look on his face.


Here he is with his cousin H, enjoying every bit of their Canada Day in Calgary.

I love the eye to eye look between Scott and the black goat. Such cute pictures. I heard there was a Canada celebration in Provo at the Canuck Store. They were serving ketchup potato chips and Wunderbars. Sorry I missed it.

Another fun day to keep in Scott's personal journal. Glad you are all having so much fun with your "miracle" baby!!
