~Happy Canada Day!~

We went today with our friends, Kim and Terry, to the park by our house to watch the Canada Day parade. It was scorching hot outside and perfect for being out because there was a nice breeze. We sat down from the street so that we could have some shade, thank goodness for the shade! Anyhow, it was a fun day and we got lots of pics! Here we go!

By the time we found the perfect spot under a tree with a breeze, Ethan was ready to eat! So him and I flopped on the grass and I fed him!



This float was students from a local taekwondo school and they were soooo cute! They were shouting in unision "Happy Birthday! Happy Birthday Canada!" In like sharp tones like it was a part of a teakwondo move! It was cute and we could hear them all the way down where we sat in the shade.


These guys had so much fun trying to make the dragon wave! You would think by the time they got to us (we were near the end of the route) that they would have had the hang of it! They were fun!

Our friend Kim and Ethan. He loved her holding him because the breeze was cooling him off!


My cutie on his first Canada Day!

This truck caught my eye. On the side it read "Big Book Box" and then had a sign for the DavTee Society. So I came home to find out what it was all about. It is a local charity (you can read more here: DavTee Society) and they are trying to fill that container with educational books! Wow! I'll be looking into them a bit more!

Loved the little maple leaf waving in front of the birthday cake! This was the Green Party's float!

Humpty from Humptys Restaurant. They almost lost him as they came off that bridge. It was a tense moment, LOL!

And lastly, Ethan as the parade came to an end, crashed in his stroller!


Happy Canada Day friends and family!

What great pics of your day! Loved looking back at your posts and photos of Ethan. He's getting so big...hard to believe he's already 2 months old. Such a beautiful little boy!
