Happy RootBeer Day+National Chicken Day
Today was RootBeer Day so we went to our favourite local A&W restuarant for a frozen root beer and onion rings indulgence. Delicious and a good time as usual. Something we were unaware of was this day is also National Chicken Day at KFC and Mary Browns.
Whenever we can we often hug a tree, talk to it for a bit by thanking it and asking if it is ok then we share a picture. We hope this act of kindness motivates you.

Happy Canada Day
Welcome to our Canada Day Celebrations. Today is a holiday, most stores are closed, however Dad went and got some delicious treats for Barron to try-his first actual eating of a duck. Happy Birthday Canada.
Throughout the day we played with our Professor Noggins Canada Day game; you can search titles at: www.professornoggin.com/allgames.shtml if you want to support this divine Canadian company. We learnt some really wonderdul facts such as:
We continued with our learning process by doing this quiz- General Knowledge Quiz: How Much Do You Know About Canada Trivia at https://youtu.be/Byd_zI0Xl08?si=V9B1cOUDXnMCjo2m which had a question that made us wonder what was so special about that area that the quiz mentioned, which was a place called Gastown.
We played You don't Know Jack 2015 where we learnt that trivial pursuit was a canadian invention so we played it on our Switch and Play Station. We finished the day hoping to find fire works display outside.

Early Summer Solstice+Yoga Day
Yesterday was an early Summer Solstice however our Internet was out for practically the entire day and into the next so this posting is a tad bit late. The wonderful folks from America kept our spirits going throughout the day as we were able to tune into two of the live stream yoga sessions on YouTube before the Internet troubled us, thank you for that!
International Yoga Day is June 21 2024 and we celebrated by using our new toeless yoga socks, following our chakra clips, and doing some favourite yoga poses like the tree pose.
