Summer End

After our vacation at the cabins, it seemed like summer ended so quickly. The air was really smoky from forest fires, which made it a lot cooler, and Fall came really fast this year! So we went to Granary Road a few more times. Melissa was visiting Calgary so we went together with our kids and it was so fun to see her again. We also went with the Bennett's again!









One weekend we decided to go to Drumheller as a family. Jeff had gotten some tickets for the Tyrell Museum from an auction so we wanted to use them. We drove out in the morning and got there just before the museum opened. We went through the whole thing in just over an hour, we couldn't believe it! Last time it took all day, but we beat the crowds so it was a lot nicer this time. Deacon was in absolute dinosaur heaven, as it's one of his new obsessions ever since we introduced him to "the land before time" movie. We came out of the museum and noticed a huge line up to get in and were so excited we came when we did! Then we went to BP's for lunch and, once again, it was completely empty when we arrived and packed when we left. We decided we needed to do at least one more thing in Drumheller before we left so we climbed up the 86ft World's Largest Dinosaur. I was a little worried about hauling all 3 kids up there, but it's really not that many steps. The kids thought it was so cool being inside a huge dinosaur and looking out of it's mouth at the top! It was totally worth it. They also had a blast the entire day spotting dinosaurs all around the town. It was seriously such a fun day! Leo behaved so well for us and everything was so enjoyable. We played at the park before we left to drive back home. 













 Jeff had his annual work BBQ  that we enjoyed going to. Bentley had fun playing with Emri in the bouncy castles and Deacon got his face painted for the first time ever. A little train!



 Other than that, we didn't do a whole lot for the rest of the summer. I started looking forward to preschool and other things starting up for Bentley so we could have a resemblance of a routine again!
