Waking up to bright sunlight in our room we looked forward to Colleen's breakfast at Highwood Views B&B. We were not disappointed. Fruit, yogurt, French toast, and even a homemade grape syrup along with the traditional maple. All while enjoying the view of snow capped mountains behind the grazing cattle just outside our window.

While we were still celebrating this find, we noticed that the grass in the foreground seemed to be moving rather oddly.

So we came home and got changed (even Jase and I got dressed up) and went to a park in High River for the ceremony. The way they do things here is different to the way we do back home.
