View from Train

 

A few photos from our train ride on Saturday. I love the Fall and all the wonderful colours that comes with it. 

 

 

Engine 41

Engine 41 runs from Stettler to Big Valley and this past weekend the Train Station at Big Valley turned 100yrs!!! I've never been on this train until Saturday and we were treated with a small ride. What FUN. I wonder how many passengers this  old engine has hauled around and how many tracks it's been on. 

 

 

 

 

Playin' on the Boardwalk

 

Every year I try to take some nice photos of my girls to send far and wide to those family and friends we rarely get to see. This year we tried some on the boardwalk in Big Valley, they love to run around and play on the old boards and rails. 

 

 

My little farmer

It was "dress like a farmer" day today at school and all I heard was "what does Papa wear" and "Dustin wears dirty jeans." LOL. Well I pulled out the overalls and cowboy boots as they both had to wear their boots too, by the end of the day they resembled "dirty farmers" that's for sure. 

 

 

 

 

View from my door

 

 

We had another gorgeous sunset tonight and I ran out to capture it and wouldn't ya know I've got the wrong lens on!!! Darn it!!! It's still a nice sunset, just would've been a lot closer with the longer lens.  Oh well. I love my view!!!

 

 

 

sleepy kitty

 

Life as our cat Buster is pretty sweet. He sleeps all day, walks around like he owns the joint, plays with the "big dog" and scares the crap out of the "little dog" and has the run of the basement at night. (cause he likes to play at night on my bed and that is not happening).  Oh yes he loves my favourite chair too, today I caught him napping in it again.

 

 

 

Big Ben

 

Gentle Ben as we call him. He loves his ball and loves to play catch. Now if I could just get him to take all the rocks off my lawn that he's put there, you see he'll play catch with anything he can carry in his mouth.
