4th of July report

We had a nice day together yesterday. Bruce worked a half-day at home, I worked in the garden (weeding and harvesting -- 18 cucumbers!), then we all went to the pool for a little bit. Later in the day Bruce did some small fireworks for the kids (the picture to the right is of them watching the fireworks).

Thought I'd share the before and after pictures of Baker -- he was lying around happily before the fireworks, but (knowing that he hates fireworks) I kept the camera on him as Bruce lit the first one! (Don't anybody scold me for being mean -- I tried to get him to come over by us before it started so that he wouldn't freak out, but he wouldn't obey -- so it's his own fault!)









...as you can see, Abigail babied him after that, so he was happy again...

Hehe! Isn't it funny? Our Shih tzu (shih tzu = kick dog) isn't bothered in the least by fireworks. Bob's rottweiler is terrified and hides under Finn's crib or in our walk in closet. Try and pull a 100lb dog out from under a crib when she doesn't want to come so you can put your baby to bed.
