Our Family: Emily´s wedding in Banff

Well one of the reasons I haven´t posted much lately is due to the fact that Miguel and I escaped to go to Emily Aldern´s wedding in Canada. It was in Banff, Alberta which is this little mountain town inside a national park. For a lack of a better adjective, it was amazing...just a little cold for my blood. Anyway, Friday when we got there we went to a wedding rehearsal without the rehearsal. Well we practiced drinking if that counts. We enjoyed some great Indian food and caught up and reminisced about old times. I got to sleep in while Miguel went golfing on Saturday (what a treat for both of us). We joined all the family and friends for a picnic at the park next to the river. Saturday night we got a little rowdy at a pub in town. Sunday was the big day and we woke up to snow!! It was beautiful and Emily handled it like a true champ. It continued to rain for most of the day but finally let up for the ceremony. We had a truly wonderful, memorable time. We enjoyed the company of all their family and friends and wish Emily and Johan a long, happy life together.

Miguel got to go golfing on Saturday morning. He was so excited. The course is very famous and the scenery is spectacular.

Hole 4. He was so excited. It´s supposed to be the best hole 4 in the world (at least according to his golf books).

That´s our hotel at the top of the hill. Everything was so breathtaking.

The happy couple Saturday night at the pub.

We went ghost hunting in our hotel with some newly made friends (Johan´s cousin, brother, and sister in law). Our hotel is supposedly haunted by a headless bride in a spiral staircase. Also a bellman is known to be ¨seen¨on the property.
