Calgary...Adam and Eva's

One of the best nights out in Calgary was when I went to visit Eva, Adam and their girls. I had to miss out on the barbecue but once there I did my best to rile up the kids right before their bedtime.

I used to love the rush you felt when you bounced a little too close to the edge of the trampoline.

I'm not sure which event inspired the other. I was impresed by how easily bedtime turned out to be. The kids posed for the beer picture above and tucked themselves into bed. When we went up to say goodnight the girls were already reading books. I love good parents. It made our boozing that much easier. Here's the proof:
