Happy Birthday Canada!
I think it’s official, I think our trip to the legislative grounds each Canada Day is now a tradition. Yes there are people everywhere, yes you are weaving through crowds with a chariot but there is so much to do and experience, that how could we miss it!
Of course the first thing to do is get Owen and Brandon into their swim suits so they can splash, balance on the stepping stones and check out the different depths of water without worry (more Mom’s worry) of getting their clothes all wet!
So as to not to feel left out, Brandon grabbed Aunty Claudette’s hand to lead her through the water.
Boys, brothers, checking something out….
After some water play, it was time to change back into their clothes and discover some more things going on. Uncle Phil was a big help, getting Brandon changed and ready, all while Brandon had his red balloon tied to his wrist.
There was the 21 gun salute – this was very very loud, we made it pretty close, we saw the smoke. After that we found an ice cream man, how better to celebrate Canada Day then with a popsicle in hand?!
After a morning of fun, we headed home for a much needed nap. Happy Canada Day! We’ll see ya next year!
