Okay, Joel and I thought it would be fun to take the kids to chinook passs to go on a hike. We got there and the trail was covered in snow but after driving for a hour we just had to try. It was slippery and scary and hilarious all at the same time. Emma found zero humor in the entire situation and insisted we buy her new shoes after taking her through such an awful experience. The rest of the kids seemed to find the adventure and teamwork in the whole thing but only for a while. Joel and I on the other had were trying hard not to laugh as we clung to little roots for dear life and kept slipping and scaring our children. Probably won't do it again anytime soon but it was a great adventure!
Summer days can be long and sometimes you have to get creative with what to do. So today I took the kids to have lunch with my mom at TG Hospital and then we enjoyed the water fountain and rose garden across from the hospital. I couldn't resist showing them Stadium High School which was so close by. It is by far the most amazing looking high school I know. It was open so we explored all three levels inside and the kids all want to go there now. Here is a little trivia. Stadium High was originally built in 1893 to be a French Chateau style upper class hotel. Because of funds and fire it was abandoned and then bought by the city to be a school. It was renovated and opened to students in the Fall of 1906. It truly is a beautiful structure. A little creepy as Ethan said but fun to explore.
