The Legislature

So if you know Edmonton, and have spent a good deal of time there, you have probably been to the legislature grounds (the government buildings).  The regular visitors come to call it 'the leg' (ledge), but it always makes me crazy writing it because it just looks like the word leg.  So out of crazy obsession I have to write the full word (just know that I definitely qualify to call it 'the leg').

Growing up we had a family tradition of visiting the legislature in the summer, playing in the pools and eating KFC.  Not sure why it was KFC but we did it every year.  We all looked forward to it.

Just a few weeks ago our family was all together again (minus my sis on a mission) with the 4 grandchildren.  We all got together to take the girls on their first 'leg' experience.  We had a great time enjoying the sun and seeing the girls excitement.  We decided to void the KFC part of the tradition as it isn't the best food for under 2 yr olds (or anyone else for that matter).

Cheers to childhood traditions that you get to carry on with your own families :)












I realized going through my pics that I have way more of my neices than my own girls (other people were using my camera to take pictures too)
