Saturday we headed out to the farm for a picnic where we could enjoy Grandma's delicious fried chicken! It was so beautiful out there. Since this is where Mom grew up, we have been visiting Magrath my whole life. Even though we were there at the tail end of winter, it was still beautiful. I love the landscape of southern Alberta - the rolling hills and golden fields, the huge blue sky, and the unexpected deep coulees. (Coulees are like small steep valleys cut through by water - they often have jagged rock edges and are full of trees) I have pictures of Dad holding Gabe on the edge of one below... Everyone was so sweet with Gabe the whole time we were in Canada. Here is Aunt Cindy taking him down to the water to explore and Dad helping him throw rocks into the water...how exciting!!
And what would a trip to Magrath be without a softball game?!! We got to watch a ball game with Cole and Jordan playing!Alex and Gabe... my sweet cousin Alex was so cute with Gabe. He adored her by the end of the trip!
