Happy Canada Day!

Such a beautiful and sunny day here - feeling very patriotic!

Seeing neighbours and friends proudly waving Canadian flags, houses dressed with patriotic flags, wearing red and white - even the Queen of England is in Toronto this week - Happy Birthday Canada! Proud to be Canadian - proud to work with international clients for clay flowers and invitations - what a great time to be Canadian...

Thankful for all of the opportunities this country has available! Enjoy the Day - festive fireworks tonight! Cheers!

March Break

Proud Canadian Moments...standing at The Parliament Buildings in Ottawa last week. I found this copper maple leaf embedded into some concrete - thought it made a nice shot. The weather was surprisingly spring-like and very enjoyable.

I have also been working on lots of small clay flower projects, but have either not photo'd them yet, or not uploaded the camera full of shots (bit of both, sorry!).

More clay flower photos next time...promise!

The Olympic Flame

So exciting to see the Olympic Flame as it passed through our town today! There were LOTS of people along the route and around the Magna Ctr - It was a VERY Proud Canadian Moment!

Went early enough to get a close-up view and no one was disappointed - lots to see, plenty of cheering and singing - everyone caught the Olympic Spirit today! Front row and the action was right there in front of us! They put on a great show and the residents who were there will have a lifetime memory - so proud to see a local torchbearer, Clare, carry it up on stage and light the Olympic Cauldron!

If The Flame is coming close to your town, it is well worth the time and effort to get to see it!

Go, CANADA, Go!
