First of July in Mountain View

So, last week my mom called my grandma and asked her if she wanted to go to Mountain View, Alberta, Canada (where my grandma was raised) for the first of July (Canada Day) to visit relatives. My grandma, my mom and my aunts always mope around on the 1st of July because they wish they were in Mountain View. So my grandma finally decided that it would be fun to go and we started off after sacrament meeting because Brooke had to give a talk (good job by the way). We got to a little passed Sparwood which is about 2 hours or so from Mountain View, and had to turn around because a semi truck got stuck on a bridge and they wouldn't be able to get it out for 4-6 hours. So we went back to Sparwood and were very lucky to get a hotel room for the night! The next morning we finally made it to Mountain View. We stayed at my Grandma's cousin's (Mona's) house which was fun.

I'm glad you are making a blog for the family. You need to add more pictures from Canada though. It looks good!
