On November 16th, Pete and I celebrated our tenth wedding anniversary. This year, unlike the previous ones, we actually did stuff!My parents graciously offered to take the boys over 2 nights this past weekend so that Pete and I could have a little getaway to Banff. We dropped the boys off at school on Friday morning, headed to the mountains, and got back late Sunday night. We spent lots of time relaxing and wandering through Banff and Canmore, just enjoying the view and eachother's company. The highlight was on Saturday afternoon when we took the gondola up to the top of Sulphur Mountain, and then climbed the path to the weather station on Sanson's peak. The view was fantastic, and the weather was perfect. We've decided not to wait 10 years to do this again.
The boys had lots of fun with Grandma & Grandpa, too. They were excited to live at their house for a few days, and their highlight was going to the Star Wars Identities exhibit at the Telus World of Science on Saturday. This is a world-touring exhibit with the original movie costumes and props, and Edmonton is one of only two stops made in North America, so it's a pretty big deal. The boys were (and still are) over the moon about it.
We also had professional pictures done for the first time since our wedding (pictures to follow soon!) and during the photo shoot, to capture my reaction, Pete gave me a ring for our anniversary (pictures to follow soon!). I'm super excited to send out awesome family pictures for Christmas this year!
