Glacier National Park and Canada

Still trying to catch up on posts of all of our summer fun. At the end of June Brodie's parents came up to Missoula for a weekend vaca with us. We had a blast. First we headed up to Canada, eh. Too bad nobody said that to me while I was there. Bummer. Anyway, we went up to the Cardston, Alberta Canada Temple for a session. It was beautiful and very unique. Next we headed to Waterton. Waterton is the Canada side of Glacier National Park. It was beautiful. A cute, little town right on the lake. We explored there for a day or two and my favorite part was the deer! There were deer everywhere throughout the town. They are so used to people you can get really close. I stood by this deer for about 15 min taking pics. She then decided she didn't like me anymore and kind of, nicely charged me. Pretty much said, "back off lady." And so I did. It freaked me out but it was hilarious. Brodie got a pic right when it happened. I love it. Next we went to Glacier National Park. We went on a 10 mile hike. It was very long, tiring, and there were warning signs for bears everywhere. Oh ya and there was snow we trudged through. Yes I said snow in June/July. I guess that is why they call it glacier. Anyway, by the end we were all real tired especially Melanie, Brodie's Mom. We were so proud of here for going the whole way on such a long hike. She did great even though she was in alot of pain afterwards. Then we headed home. It was a great trip and we had a lot of fun with the parents. Glacier and Waterton are beautiful places and I would recommend them to everyone. Of course you have to visit us on the way up!
