the endless laughing. the endless eating. never being able to make a decision on plans, so instead sitting for hours on end just talking. the constant making fun of each other. the tubing. the bridge jumping that never gets old. everybody owning a mini van and it seeming cool. always wondering what the in-laws are thinking. the one minute parade that brings us all together in the first place. our dances. the talent of each family member. alberta sun sets. our grandma and grandpa who probably shake there heads thinking of this whole mess of a family they started. the priceless truth knowing that this might just be what eternity is like.
i love the first of july in canada. but even more the family that comes with it.
p.s. thank you brad for letting me go while you had to do school. you were sure missed!
