canada day in gabon

happy canada day! no, we did not forget about the most important canadian day even though we're not in canada. we started our celebration this morning by putting canadian confetti on the tables and sticking canadian flag toothpicks in all of the bread.




after dinner danielle and i had cupcakes ready (complete with more canadian flag toothpicks) to hand out to everyone. meredith and tim were even in to it - they were downloading the anthem to play as we handed out our "surprise dessert." and when we finally went to give them out... what do the american's (most) do...? start singing the american anthem :( so tim, meredith, danielle, and i went back in the kitchen and came out eating our cupcakes and then they had nothing but good things to say about canada. canada day is so much better in canada.
