A week ago, we concluded seven days of vacation.  We headed out to Alberta to see my little brother-in-law and his wife. We brought our baby with us and got him a travel bed for toddlers. We took in the biggest mall in the world, watched some movies, played some games, and just generally enjoyed a time of rest.  Sometimes, all a holiday needs to be is a change of routine.

We got that.

And somewhere along the way, this beauty of a family portrait was born…

And our gracious hosts…
