Canada Day


I'm Back!!!  After endless hours of frustration at not being able to sign in to my blogger account it feels good to be back!  We had some major computer issues over the last couple of weeks, but we're back up and running.  The next few posts will be catching up on what's been happening around here during summer.  So far it's been a busy one, but I'm anticipating a slower paced August with lots of fun family time.  Here's a few pics from Canada Day.  Canada Day is always a much anticipated event around here.  The kids look forward to the parade, and Rob and I look forward to hanging out with friends.  This years parade theme was 'with glowing hearts'...a line right out of our national anthem.  The parade was so-so good;)  We were anxiously awaiting the Gallery7 float that Rob was pulling for his bro, Ken.  Of course, it was the very last float...yes, last as in the street sweeper was following it.  But hey, save the best for last right? 
Our group of friends and families took up about a city block...yah, there's that many of us.  We had a blast and sang along and cheered as loud as we could...it sure brought the candy in for the kids!  After the parade everyone headed over to some friends' house for an afternoon of hockey, food and visiting.  It was a great afternoon.  Later in the day we brought the kids home and we all crashed for a couple of hours, then back up and out to the fireworks.  Great day, Great way to celebrate our Nation.
