Oh my gosh ! I see I completely missed June. I'm glad and thankful that you didn't. I suppose I should worry about it, I make the absent minded professor look like a genius, of course, I guess that's what he was. I never worry about losing my memory, it wasn't until grade six I remembered that 2 + 2 = 4, it was embarrassing having classmates watch me count it on my fingers. I still forget my keys when I leave the house, you're probably thinking "I do too ", but not every single time, sometimes I forget why I left the house. July 1, Canada Day, 150 years. It's a big deal every where you go, well I guess not every where. I figure at least one place in Scotland it is. Very exciting news that Tricia and Marie are going to be spending a couple of hours in Regina this month. It is always so great to see them. Canada Day won't be the most exciting day of this month and I know my 7 sisters would agree. I always loved telling people I have 7 great sisters, then hearing " do you have any brothers ?".
Have a great day
Loved

🍁HAPPY CANADA DAY to you, too, Edward🍁.
You're right, here in Scotland, we are proudly displaying the Canadian flag on our St. Andrews home.🌏 When Dave drove off to play golf in Caroustie, the car was also flying one of those window flags on a Canadian theme🚩. Neighbours here have sent greetings our way and we are enjoying the Facebook July First postings of friends from coast to coast.💌
💻Thanks for your newest blog posting. This July 2017 promises to be a month of special times to be lived, cherished and remembered.❤ Funny thing...I must say that when I tell people I have seven brothers, they usually go on to ask, "...any sisters?" The pleasure of answering SIX is all mine.😏
✈I'll see you in Regina on the 10th.
💌Lots of love

6 sisters; 7 brothers. It doesn't get any better than that!! Unless it is 7 sisters and 6 brothers-----how the boys see it.
HAPPY CANADA DAY 🇨🇦
I am so happy to be a Canadian. "My home and native land."

HAPPY CANADA DAY from the Nation's Capital. We are flying our Canadian flag and also have a car flag.

So... lay claim to this Friday birthday celebration🎂. If possible, let it spill over into a weekend of family fun👨👩👧👦. We wish you much joy today, as well as a sunny summer and an easy time of transition in the days, weeks and months ahead.🎢 Cheers!🍻

Congratulations!💑 According to our Book of Days, this is your PEARL Anniversary. We all know the process by which a pearl is formed over time to become a precious stone💟. A marriage of thirty happy years is well-represented by the durable, silvery pearl.🎎

🌅Wherever you happen to be on this August 1, 2017, we hope the two of you are able to take time out to celebrate your eighth wedding anniversary.💏 Later in August, when you are setting up your brand new family home, things are sure to get busy for you, Norah and Simone.🏠 Such changes become the milestone memories that last a lifetime.📷
Just for today, then, relax and celebrate the marriage that has brought you to this happy moment in time.💞👨👧👧👩🏠 We'll drink to that!🍻

Thank you, Louise and Dave and Happy Anniversary to you, too!
I didn't realize this was our Pearl anniversary so I have put on a string of pearls that a friend brought back from Hawaii for me some years ago.
We have talked about going out to the Saskatchewan Hotel tonight but they have stopped serving supper in the dining room (just breakfast & lunch now). We did go to the bar there for supper last year but it's not quite the same. Our original waitress on our first date, Dora, was there though. One of these years I'm sure she'll be retired. At any rate we will go out for supper. 'Just not quite decided yet.
Thanks again!
Love (-:hristine and Ron
👋Hi again Christine,
Clever you, donning those pearls on this special day😍! Wherever you decide to have supper, enjoy the food🍴 and friendship💑. Celebrate the wonder of having found one another to love💍.
Thanks you, too, for the anniversary wishes🎎. We have just now poured ourselves a wee dram for a toast to the health and happiness of the three couples celebrating today🍶 - Christine and Ron Evans, Amy and Cory Antonini and Louise and David Butcher. 🍻Three cheers to a total of 85 years!
