Winter Picnics

Jonathan and girls in Banff
Lake Minnewanka, Banff, Alberta

What to do in Winter?


This. Is. Everything.


Sometimes it is the most simple of things that bring the most joy.

Daddy very last minute packed lunch and told us to all get in the car. We were going to go to the mountains.

The idea of a day trip sounded great in theory but in actuality sounded dreadful to me. Packing up our crew, all of their winter gear, snacks for the day and back up clothes for accidents is definitely not the easiest of tasks.

However with challenges often comes great opportunity. So we planted our flag on that and embraced the possibility that it would all be worth it.

There is absolutely no question that the untouchable view of the beautiful country we live in and the simplicity of eating homemade sandwiches with the ones you love was worth it.


We are very grateful for these tiny humans we were blessed with and the freedoms we have to create family memories that are pure magic.
