Happy Canada Day Eh

Yesterday was Canada Day and it was a pretty good fun fulfilled day. Nikki and I went to IHOP for, as she puts it, "Breeho" ....means breakfast in Nikki speak. Chris, Amy, Nick & Pete showed up there too but close to when were finished our "breeho". After that Nikki and I went home, Randy came over and they watched France beat Brazil at the World Cup Soccer. So France is moving on up. I did some laundry and was playing on me computer when I should have been cleaning me room. Anyone will support that statement. Chris & the gang, and us we all went to Cate's Park before the EQ BBQ for us RS @ Pat's house. I first went shopping to pick up a couple of sleeping bags for kaisha & I (2 for 40$) and then I bought two pairs for capris' and one pair of shorts. So, I arrived a little later than the rest. I was driving Nikki's car and I put in one of my old mixed CD's (made 2005) and oh my heck, that is one good CD. I put on all these songs that are great to sing to and just make you feel good when you listen to them. Not a church CD though. When I get to Cate's Park, I had to find the group and walked around for a bit and finally found them. What a beautiful day it was. We played some catch, 500 up and Rook. My softball was out on the beach and this german shephard sees the ball, picks it up and starts playing with it and the owner is trying to get it back from the dog but his dog would not give it up, so they starting playing fetch. He threw it in the water and the dog went after it. I told the owner he can just keep the ball it really didn't belong to me in the first place (Jay S. gave it to me after he lost my baseball and he found another one as a replacement under a bush). After a while, they just left leaving the ball in the sand...needless to say, I left it there for the next dog. It was my Canada Day present to them.
The EQ BBQ at Pat's was really well done. There was a white sheet strung up to make the giant screen and Mark C. was making the dinner. So delicious and the dessert was soo yummy, it was strawberries layered with whipped cream with pineapples. A group of us went to see the fireworks at Ambleside rather than watch the movie. The fireworks were good but we didn't have a great view so every once in a while, when they were high, we could ohh and ahh like everyone else. We tried to get a rendition of Oh Canada going but someone actually said no, when nikki said, let's sing o canada. haha.
Had a very full day up until midnight, needed to buy some more TP so we went to 7-11 by Pat's and it was 11:55. I had my purchases rung up and pd by 11:59. Nikki's was right @ midnight. Good Times!!
