But as an adult, I didn't take part in any Canada Day festivities. July 1st either meant a day off work or a long weekend if it fell on the right day or working and getting stat pay...Ching Ching.
I have lived in Grande Prairie for 14 yrs and the first time I attended the Canada Day parade here was in 2011....my daughter's first parade. For the past three years I have bought a special t-shirt for Rachael...months in advance. This was probably the first year where she could really be aware of what was going on. Having a kid makes you connect with you community
It reached 38 degrees Celsius today...very balmy. Parade and then activities at the park made for a very exhausted girl. She fell asleep in the ride home and went straight to bed.
