~~Happy Canada Day~~

Today, July 1st, we celebrate Canada Day. The Americans separated from British rule in 1768, and celebrate Independence Day on July 4th. Canada waited 100 years later, until 1868, to create the "Dominion of Canada". The basis of Canada's celebration is founded on the formation of a new country and the union of provinces.

We will be celebrating with a BBQ with Fireworks. I plan to make this cake to add to the festivities.




Looking forward to checking out fellow bloggers' 4th of July celebrations.

Happy Canada Day, Elizabeth! Thank you for visiting my new blog and for the nice comments you left for me. I enjoyed your post about the lamps and picture frames --- you did VERY well! I'm a bit of a lamp person myself --- maybe you and I should do posts about just lamps and why we chose them, what shades work best, etc.

Thanks again. I hope we visit each other again very soon!

Warm regards,
Bill
