Welcome to Spud Island

Wow, what a great day!  We started off the day with beaver tails for breakfast.  The second batch wasn’t as good as the first but still tasty!

Next, we got ready to watch our local community parade.  It’s not very big, but the fireman always do such a great job making the day fun for the kids.  They have the trucks set up for the kids and let them use the hoses.

After the parade, we headed over to the legion to have some hotdogs and cake.  Grace participated in a few games and the girls picked some flowers for me.  There was even a cute minature horse too.   He was the perfect height for Gabby.

Grace loved the wheel barrow races ~ they finished 2nd

He was NOT impressed…can you tell?

After the parade was over, we walked home to find a stash of candy at the bottom of our driveway…compliments of the local fire dept!  (hubby is also a member)

;)

We are heading over to a friend’s place shortly to watch the fireworks….she has a perfect view from her deck and we won’t have to worry about getting stuck in traffic.

HAPPY CANADA DAY EVERYONE!
