Recently we took a mini vacation to Jasper for a little adventure for the boys. Let's just say even though they are twins, the boys are completely different. While Liam was a wild man on the river whitewater rafting. Aaron was hanging on for dear life. The same for horseback riding. Even with the differences they both had a dear fondness for the Miette Hot Springs.
Our guide took the time to teach each boy how to steer the raft. Liam got much joy from making us all paddle (LOTS) while Aaron had one side of the raft paddle forward and the other paddle backwards which resulted in the raft spinning.
We had only been to Jasper once before and only spent the night so the boys were excited to boogie around downtown.
Aaron really does hate doing physical things so while Dad and Liam were hiking, Aaron hung out with Mom by the Maligne Lake docks just relaxing.
The favorite spot even though I had to reinforce numerous times that the Hot Springs were NOT swimming pools. They are "Soaking" pools. I should also mention that our Japanese exchange student was also part of the trip. We love showing our students parts of Canada that they would never see ordinarily.
Stay tuned for tomorrow where I will showcase what happens when my children decide it would be fun to make fondant - RED FONDANT.....All over the kitchen.....Seriously. It happened and their sister was the leader.
