a bunch of wild animals

 

My family and I spent a warm (very warm) afternoon at the Calgary Zoo! The grandbabies loved it of course. Our grandpa drove all the way from British Columbia and surprised us at the Zoo! I was so excited to see him, because I don't get to see him nearly enough. He gives the best hugs, and calls me pumpkin. It was a great afternoon and we had a lot of fun walking around talking and looking at all the animals.
After the Zoo we went to a pretty well known spot in Alberta called Peter's Drive Thru. It has been around for forever and would say it has the same appeal as an In-n-out does to Californians. It is that place people just have to go when they are in town or if you live Calgary just a favorite local spot. My dad will go on and on about this place and their amazing shakes.... which if I might say, were pretty dang yummy :) It was fun to go there and see that it has hardly changed after so many years!




Such a fun filled day :)
