Canada Day - Warburg & Breton July 2009

So this year we got to celebrate Canada Day twice! It is a lucky thing it is Anna's favourite holiday!

The weekend before Canada Day we attended the Warburg parade and celebrations. We only caught the tail end of their parade, but for what we saw it looked good. After we went to their gathering area where they had some vendors and games for the kids. Anna and Orrin got to see a clown for the first time and he did some tricks with them. They went on the bouncing castle and played at the playground. Jesse had to get some things done at home so he and Orrin left for a bit while Anna and I went with Bonnie and Taylor to watch his baseball game.

After the game we met back up with Jesse and Orrin and went to watch the 4th annual Demonlition Derby. It was a lot of fun and in my opinion a lot more entertaining than the Mud Boggs. My only complaint was a sore butt from sitting on the ground for so long! I will definately plan to go to the one next year.

And on Canada Day we had it in Breton. I don't have any photos of the parade this year cause I was in the parade, so I will post some of last years as it was pretty much the same! I have to say it is a very different experience being in the parade and a lot of fun waving to all the kids and throwing them candy. It is a huge parade for our little town and people come from all over Alberta for it!

After the parade we went to the dunk tank for a bit where Anna tried to dunk the High School Principal and missed only by a hair! We looked at the vehicles at the Show 'n' Shine and went to play area for the kids to play some games.
