Happy Canada Day to fellow Canadians (and honorary Canadians)!


Two videos I suggest you watch today are:

and

What are your plans for the day?
Going to parade? drinking some Canadian beer on your deck? maybe a game of street hockey?

    I have to work today sadly. Othewise I'd be at the Surrey celebration. It's supposed to be huge this year, and they've got some great performers lined up since I know you LOVE music :) I might try to drag out the hubby and baby afterwards if the weather holds.

    Happy Canada Day! I plan to watch the fireworks over the St. Lawrence River tonight. The rest of the day will be spent with my kids, the dogs and my pool. :)

    Went to church, pancakes and Bacon for lunch, spray painting shelves and mini table and chairs for my little guys' room. Hopefully get a run in today.

    Going to celebrate buying and moving into our first home with wine, crackers and a cheese ball. So not Canada Day focused but still celebratory. We'll toast the land of the maple leaf, as well. :-)

    Happy Canada Day. She's a beautiful liquid sunshine kinda day in Northern BC. Mr. Sun might put his hat on, but I doubt it. Hope everyone has a safe and enjoyable day.

    Happy Canada Day!! The weather was beautiful here on the East Coast. I'll probably head out to the fireworks later, but otherwise, my Canada Day has been pretty low-key.
