Summer is winding down.

It's sure been a long summer. We're winding down to the last week with Labour Day long weekend upon us. There are so many highlights from the summer, but one to really remember will be the hot, dry weather in Vancouver. Records were broken, water restrictions were implemented and Roger even came pretty close to buying a portable air conditioner. For Melody, she's been able to really swim, not quite yet confident to jump in the deep end and swim herself out of it, but she can seriously go underwater and propel herself a good 15 to 20 feet. Oh, and she's also mastered the backwards, underwater somersault (something her brother can't do yet). As for Malcolm, it's been a jam packed summer with camps, bike camp, camping and a couple of mini vacations to keep busy. Literally the last weekend before school starts. New backpacks are ready, school supplies and bought and all there is to do is for school to actually start on Tuesday. Here are some pictures from the past few weeks including the family's annual outing to the PNE, uncle Calvin's birthday, and our trip to the Aquarium on our last DaddyDayCare day of the summer. Now the first day of school......
