The last weekend of August...where did the summer go?

At least there's still one more long weekend before Joseph goes back to school. The bus phoned this evening to give us his pick up/drop off times for this year and it's better than last years! 7:20 pick up and 12:25 drop off. Last year it was 7 :00 pick up and 12:35 drop off. So it looks like Joseph won't have to get up until 6:45, yeah for him! I don't know about you guys but 6:30 just seems a little too early for a 4 year old to me. Although for a long time he'd get up at 6 on his own, although that was totally his doing, I would have been happier if he'd slept until 7 especially on the weekends!
We've already decided to go to Morinville for the long weekend. We're going to have a very busy fall and aren't sure when we'll get a chance to go. Aaron works 3 weekends in a row in September and then is taking his CPR/Standard First Aid on the next weekend. And come October the boys will be in their skating/swimming lessons.
I actually discovered tonight that the Family Leisure Center across from Southcentre Mall offers an annual family pass for $615! That includes the wavepool/waterslide, drop in fitness/deep water classes, skating/adult shinny hockey and the fitness room and indoor track. So, it looks like we'll be switching leisure centers to this one which is actually closer for us too! The center we have been going to is $650/year per adult and I think the kids were a couple hundred each as well. Ouch! That's a lot of money we just about wasted!
