Canada Day

The thing with being on vacation

is while you're having a fabulous time

you don't get much opportunity to blog.

So I'm hoping to get all caught up today.

Meet my cousin Faiza.

With my other cousin's adorable son.

 Faiza is an amazing woman.

Last summer,

I mentioned wanting to take Ethan to a baseball game

for Canada Day.

Faiza was all over it.

She got us tickets

and provided Ethan with enough junk food to last him a lifetime.

So this year, 

when we planned a trip home,

you bet I turned to Faiza for another 

Canada Day ball game.

Well this year,

Faiza had other plans.

Bigger plans.

She got a few of my cousins together for the game.

The kids

She invited her mates

and some other cousins I haven't seen in

years!

Faiza arranged for some

Canada tattoos

at her own private

Canada-Day-Tattoo-Parlor.

We hit the street fair before the game.

My cousin Karim helps Ethan with his batting.

We had a great time at the game,

despite the fact that the Jays lost.

After the game,

Faiza invited us all back to her place

for a bbq.

We had a great time.

Thanks Faiza.

We can't wait to see what you've got planned for

next year!

Happy Canada Day!!!
