Happy Canada Day!

Happy Canada Day everyone!  Sorry I've been MIA, but I haven't done anything noteworthy in the past 2 weeks.

Yesterday was Canada Day here, and we had a fantastic day.  Obviously it wasn't a holiday, but Justin took the day off work and Ryan and Neal (Kelsey's brother) were both home from the field.  Luckily we had AMAZING weather and were able to spend the entire afternoon out in Justin's backyard drinking beer.  Unfortunately there was no Canadian beer to be found, but I think the boys were secretly happy about that.  Note the palm trees around us!


In the evening, 3 of Justin's friends from school came over to help us celebrate.  They were not Canadian, but tolerated our Canadian music none the less!  Actually, they came because Justin promised them beer-can chicken.  Everyone here seems to think it's mean to defile a chicken like that...until they taste it!  


I hope all of you also had a great Canada Day.  It's funny how much more Canada Day means now that I don't live there, so make me proud!
