First few months in Calgary

We'll see if I can get caught up on some blogs....Our first few months here in Calgary went fast and we didn't seem to get out to explore the city much.  We really focused on getting settled into our house and after that I didn't have much interest in exploring (especially in the cold).  We've tried a few new restaurants trying to find some local favorites.  There's always some sort of shopping to do which also helps when learning a new city.  Wade and Ethan managed to go sledding several times - there is a small sledding hill right next to our house.

We've also done a couple things that I don't have photos of.  Wade and Ethan went to the World of Wheels Car show with friends Andre and Erik one weekend.  I think the boys all had fun and Jen and I both enjoyed a few hours off.  We've also visited a couple farmer's markets.  We really miss the Old Strathcona Farmer's Market in Edmonton but we have found one here that seems to work for us.  This one has a small playground area that Ethan really enjoys and it also has some really good food vendors that we usually take advantage of for breakfast or lunch depending on the time of day.  The Edmonton market had a better selection of local produce but we still usually find something to buy.  The big thing is that it gives us something to do on the weekends even if the weather isn't nice.
