Fireworks at Kensington

On July Fourth, Tammy, Tom, Carrie, Paul, and my hubby Rob and I all went to Kensington Metro Park to see the fireworks. We had a nice time. To see Tammy's pictures and a more complete tale of the evening's events, visit her blog HERE.

Here are my pre-fireworks, Naarah's just screwing around with her camera pictures.

Gumby 2/12/92-7/03/07

Alot has gone on the past couple weeks. But one is most important me. My family's dog, Gumby, passed away on Tueday July 3. I know he was old. I know he was sick. And I'm glad he's not suffering any more. But it doesn't make it hurt any less. I've known Gumby nearly half my life. That's more than I can say for a lot of people. And unlike most people, I loved the dog unconditionally, the way I know he loved us. So, this is in memory of Gumby. We'll miss him dearly.

Oy Vey

This just pisses me off!
