Dear Canada,

I know it's belated, but I've been meaning to wish you a happy Canada Day for a while now. I was hoping to celebrate it by going to the very edge of the United States and touching the border, but it didn't work out. I'd like to thank you for several things, Canada.

#1: My best friend Brittany Nelson King.

#2: The wonderful experiences I had going on dance tours throughout Western Canada in 2005, and Eastern Canada in 2007.


#3: Anne of Green Gables. (and Gilbert Blythe, of course.)


#4: The wonderful honeymoon Gid and I had.


#5: Your oreos. I know most americans say our oreos are better, but they're lying. Yours are the best.
