Bear's Hump

For my 30th Birthday I was in Canada and I thought what would I like to spend my doing? There was Mini golf, the mall, a movie, out to eat, you know all the regulars:) Then when I was on my morning run I thought a hike up Bears Hump would be absolutely wonderful! So my brother Mike and I headed up to Waterton National Park for the day. It is so beautiful there, and we had an amazing time! Izzy took to Mike and became his buddy, he carried her basically the whole way:) Thanks Uncle Mike! Here is Izzy feeding the chipmunks. I told her to bite off a piece of her banana and give it to the chipmunks. So she proceeds to do so, she bit off a piece and spit it out on the rocks:) The chipmunks were very grateful, who knew they like "regurgitated" food.

Now isn't that an amazing view? Wow the climb was well worth it!! It is amazing how windy it is there I felt like I was going to be swept off the mountain side. As I stood looking out over this beautiful view I thought back on my 30 years of life! How blesssed I have been to have the gospel, amazing parents who I thank from the bottom of my heart for everything they have done for me. Being a parent makes you realize how much my parents have done, an absolutely wonderful husband who makes me laugh every day, family, my 3 little jewels who make me smile every day my health, my talents and all of the wonderful friends who have touched my life for good.

Lilli was an amazing hiker, she did it all by herself and it was a pretty steep climb!

Uncle Mike got his work out and then some. The girls and Mike found the perfect walking stick but then when Izzy wanted Mike to carry her he ditched it. The girls were pretty sad about it but we said it would be there when we came down. Well needless to say we saw a man at the top who also thought it was the perfect walking stick. We were able to find some more walking stick, but just not as good as the first.

Izzy and her buddy Mike. It was really cute to watch Izzy. I could tell that she wanted to "hang out" with her Uncle Mike but was kind of nervous, they warmed up quickly and she wanted to hold his hand at all times or be held by Mike. It was really cute:0
