Another Canada Day draws to a close....

Its been a long day but quite nice....we went into Sherwood Park for the festivities.....ran into Samantha and her family.....saw a few others that I knew too....Oliver got to see some real Mounties....we strolled through the farmers market....stopped off at the fire station where the children got to fire the hose and got given helmets and stickers etc for doing so....Sam loved that :)

Laurie took part in a mini Grand Prix......and won...it was 10 laps and he was against another 5 cars.....it was all remote control sports cars and very exciting :)

Lots of side shows, fairground treats like cotton candy and mini doughnuts.....bouncy castles....stilt walkers.....petting zoos and bird box making (lol)

After that we headed home for a relaxing evening.....bbq.......then ended the evening sitting around the firepit until it was dark....drinking tea.....twirling sparklers......chatting.....telling stories....

We had planned to head into town for the fireworks at 11pm but we took a vote and Susie and I lost....so we didn't make the traditional trek into town for the fireworks :( I'm kind of sad but it WAS nice sitting outside by the lovely fire Lloyd had roaring!

Charlie was sat with us....Cairo close by.......and even Gizmo from next door came over!

Now its almost midnight and everyone is in bed except for Lloyd and I....so I will add the rest of the pictures tomorrow......and go off to bed.....

Happy Canada Day everyone - I hope you all had a great July 1st!!! What did you all do to celebrate??????

Moi!!!!!!
