Happy Birthday Canada




For our first Canada Day celebration as a family, we packed up a picnic and headed to Heritage Park in Southern Calgary. We couldn't believe how busy it was! But fortune was on our side as a very sweet couple handed us their tickets as they were leaving. We skipped the big line up and walked right into the park.
The park is huge and contains numerous old buildings and equipment from the past. Our favourite part was the farm animal section. Horses, sheep, pigs, chickens, and cows - Brandon loved it :)
Our weather was pretty good so after wandering around the park for a couple of hours, we threw down our picnic blanket and enjoyed the sites and sounds of the celebrations happening around us (clowns preforming for the kids and country music playing in the tent). It was a really great day and I can't wait to take Brandon back there when he's a bit older.
Happy 143rd birthday Canada!!!!
