Canada Day in Scotland

We were fortunate to be able to spend Canada Day with some Canadian friends. We all enjoyed a BBQ (which had to be done under the bridge here as it was pouring rain!), great salads, and a marvelous cake. It was great food and great company to celebrate with. Later in the evening, it even stopped raining so we could do sparklers....I don't think I had done sparklers since I was a kid! It was great although the children were a little scared of them at first. So here are our photos from our little celebration.

Here is the great cake

Here is Jacob playing with a sparkler....unfortunately he was too scared to hold it and by the time I convinced him to try, the sparkler was pretty much done.

Alexander was a little uncertain about his turn as well

Here is Benjamin with his sparkler.

Here are some of the children celebrating. Benjamin is showing off his Canada tatoo; something that all the children got on their arms.

We hope you all had great celebration as well. We look forward to seeing photos of your celebrations.....Hint Hint!!
