Last night we ended up going to Lethbridge. Lennard has been so busy with rugby every night that we haven’t seen him much lately. He has a training camp in Fort Macleod this weekend too, so we took the evening and Lennard let the other coaches take over for the night. It ended up being such a fun evening together.
The first thing we did when we got in to Lethbridge was head over to Logic Lumber. We paid for all the lumber that we need to build our hangar (yikes!). It’s actually going to happen. They will be delivering everything on the 15th and then the ‘fun’ will begin.
We were going to take the kids to Burger King so that they could play on the indoor playground there, but I just couldn’t bring myself to actually eating there, so we went for Chinese food instead! We told the kids we were going to a surprise and Emma kept her eyes shut until we arrived. She was SO excited when we opened the door of the restaurant and she figured out where we were. Unfortunately, we discovered that they are closing their doors for good this weekend. Glad we managed to get one last meal there before they closed!
The kids LOVE wonton soup and finished it right to the very last drop. They did pretty good with everything else too. I can’t wait til we get to take them to the Flamingo this summer in Vancouver! Mmmm…
After my rant last week about our budget, I laughed so hard when I opened my fortune cookie. Couldn’t have been more appropriate!
As we were leaving, the kids sang some lullabies to the fish.
We stopped at Value Village quickly and then headed over to Costco. One of my friends had seen an airplane teeter totter and told me about it earlier in the week. We had seen it before a few years ago, but the kids were too little then. Since we just got our income tax return figured out, we decided that we could spend some money on the kids before the rest of it went in to a hangar! I had to laugh that the kids ended up with a plane before Lennard! (Love you, Lennard!) It will be a nice addition out at the airport when we are building this summer.
The first words out of Benny’s mouth this morning was, “I go ride in the airplane now?” Unfortunately, Lennard is going to be busy with rugby stuff until Saturday evening. We might be able to do it then, depending on the weather, but most likely we’ll have to wait until Monday and do it for Family Home Evening. Poor boy has been saying every 10-15 minutes, “I’m waiting for my airplane!” This could be an interesting weekend!
