Two Lakes and Kakwa

We went to Two Lakes and Kakwa Falls last weekend. It is 2 hours to Two Lakes and then 2 more hours on a crazy bumpy road to Kakwa. We drove it all in one day--while everyone else camped there for a few days. (Yes, we are crazy!!) This is the lake where everyone camped. It was just beatiful.

This was just one of the sections of the road to Kakwa. It was only 20 kilometer to Kakwa but it took us 2 hours to get there because it is a creek bed most of the way up.

This is Kakwa falls. It is beautiful!! It was worth the drive. (Just not all in one day next time)
These next few pictures are of the falls and river.

The kids hiked down to the falls and Ty got this picture from behind the waterfalls.

This picture was from up top where we were. The kids and a few others were more adventurous and went right down.

This was the crazy hike down. Thin ropes were the only things to hold onto. One actually broke on the way back up. YIKES!!

So overall it was awesome. Fun to be together with Ron, Sherry, Nate, Kathy, Tracy and Sharron and Family!!

Birthdays

Brynley our sweetheart turned 2 years old this year. She is the happiest girl and loves to laugh and play. The other day Tim said to me, "What would we do without her in our family". It is so true everyone loves Brynley. Because she is just turning 2 we just had a birthday cake and presents for her. She had so much fun!!!

Tyler turned 14 this year!!! His birthday was on July 22. We had a surprise party for him, it was so much fun!! We invited a bunch of his friends and had a paintball war. They all had so much fun being shot and shooting each other. Then because they were so hot from all of their layers they went swimming at Auntie Sherry's house. Then we went home, had cake and ice cream, watched a movie and ate dinner. We had such a blast and as you will see in the picture, Tyler was definately surprised. (I uploaded the pictures backwards and don't know how to switch them around-- so just know that they are backwards as far as timeline)

Tyler also got his learners permit 2 days after his Birthday. He is so excited and is a fairly good driver. Although I must say there have been a few times when I have been worried for my life!!! I guess that's why they call it a LEARNERS.
