Fourth of July Fireworks at the Beach

 

Again this year we traveled to Florida in July. 

And had a completely wonderful vacation with our extended family

We celebrated on the Fourth and again on Saturday!! Woo-Hoo!

Not everyone loves fireworks.

Bella for one. You know, the sweet little puppy who is always under my heels and never leaves my side? Yeah, Bella ran away. We were out until one in the morning looking for the mutt. I wonder sometimes if this poor creature wouldn't have been better off with a different family.

Two days later, Kim found a flyer posted in the Post Office. 

Found Dog. Call #

and a picture of a sad scared muttly on a stranger's kitchen floor.

She showed up on this nice family's doorstep and they made real effort to help her find her way home.

Lucky dog.
