Our Summer To-Do List


It is starting to feel like Summer! And with the beautiful Alberta weather and green grass and gorgeous flowers, come all the FUN, Summer activities! Our little family typically does day-long road trips as it best suits our family budget and scheduling. Travelling and seeing new (and familiar!) parts of Alberta has kinda become our Summer-thing.


Summer 2016 will be filled with tons of fun, great food, and lots of memories! We are looking forward to crossing off some of our annual favourites, as well as some new adventures! Check out what made our Summer Bucket-List:

~ Visit Mirror Lake, take the train and get an ice cream (One of many attractions in our little city!)

~ Lots and lots of beach and lake days: All winter long I have been longing for days like this one. I am so excited to visit our favourite spot - Pelican Point and try out new and different lakes and beaches this summer that are within a days drive to us!

~ Take Colden to Calaway Park and Calgary Zoo

~ Visit the Ukrainian Cultural Heritage Village during their Vintage Day. I first fell in love with this museum way back on a grade 5 field-trip, and ever since it has been one of my most favourite places on earth. During their Vintage Day celebrations, visitors can enjoy a display of vintage vehicles from all across Canada, as well as a singing competition that showcases the provinces finest, young singers, in addition to the usual village, and market activities. The Ukrainian Village actually holds a lot of meaning for my little family; Pier proposed at the village back in 2011 and I am so excited to be able to take Colden here for the first time, this year!

~ Take the Alberta Prairie Railway Excursions from Stettler to Big Valley - Colden LOVES trains, so this is the perfect little trip for my little boy! I just c a n n o t wait to surprise him! 

~ Spend a day at Leduc in the Alexandra Outdoor Pool and Spray Park and finish the day off with some Tutti Frutti yogurt (of course!)

~ Visit the Dinosaurs of Drumheller - For Christmas, we received passes to visit the Royal Tyrrell Museum ; we cannot wait to visit this popular Alberta attraction for the first time!

~ Visit as many playgrounds in our town as possible!

Would-Be-Nice Summer List:

 ~ Reynolds Alberta Museum ~ Fort Edmonton Park ~ K-Days ~ Edmonton Valley Zoo ~ Camping ~ Complete as many things off of the Camrose Summer Activities: 100 things to see and do list as we can!~

What's on your Summer to-do list? What is your top pick from this list?
