~Day 46~ Flag

Happy Flag Day! Today, is National Flag Day in Canada, so there was a little ceremony at work and a quiz to help us learn a little more about the history of our flag. Our current flag was designed by George Stanley and was proclaimed by Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II to take effect on February 15, 1965; thus we are celebrating the 46th anniversary of our flag. King George V appointed the official colours of Canada in 1921. Thanks to Sandra, who was one of the quiz winners, for the flag. She thought I should have it for my photography project.

And here are a few of the boys playing basketball. Yes, apparently you CAN still play basketball with eight feet of snow on the ground!
