canada is a place of infinite promise.

To all of my Canadian readers....Happy Canada Day! I always love celebrating Canada Day. It's a chance to spend some time with friends and family - and check out some fireworks, too. For the last couple of years, my boyfriend and I have gone to the beach to check out the vendors, rides, and firework display. This year, things are going to be a little bit different.

My friends have organized a barbecue downtown, so my boyfriend and I are heading out to join them. It's exciting, for sure....but I will definitely miss our tradition of going to the beach. At any rate, it will be great to see my friends. I don't get the chance to see them nearly enough! I will be sure to update you all on my Canada Day experience.

However you're celebrating this year, I hope you have an amazing day. To finish off this post, here is a quote to get you in the mood. Happy Canada Day, everyone!

"I am a Canadian, free to speak without fear, free to worship in my own way, 

free to stand for what I think right, free to oppose what I believe wrong, 

or free to choose those who shall govern my country. 

This heritage of freedom I pledge to uphold for myself and all mankind."

- John Diefenbaker 

Happy Canada Day! Be sure to let me know how you're celebrating.
