Fireworks and an Update

We lit up the night sky on the 4th to celebrate out Nations Independence.

OK, maybe not the sky, but our Court in front of our home ;)

Brandon playing pyrotechnics....

Melissa and Tanya...loving this picture ☺

and the hazy aftermath...

smoke

There were lots of illegal Fireworks all around us,

(as usual) ...

dangerous but very pretty...

I'm just too slow with the camera :(

~~Update on Cyndar and Baylee~~

I've had several of you ask how they were doing.

I'm glad to say very well!!

Cyndar is back to Sentry Duty...

We are not letting her jump or run as per Dr orders...

but that is easier said than done.

Try stopping a 170 freight train when it's determined...

we've taken a few spills trying.

We're watching her weight and

she is now on Rymidal.

Katie doing the "chow chow chow" dance

who said my pets weren't talented?? 

 Cyndar at the ready ☺ 

As for Baylee,

she is also doing well ☺

Enjoying the sun...

and back to complaining...

yup, still complaining

She has full use of her leg which has healed beautifully.

The Dr said the fur would come back darker..

and she was right.

So far no signs of more lumps...

keeping fingers crossed.

Wishing everyone beautiful smells and big barks!!

Didn't think any of these reseeded this year.

Wishing you a Rosy weekend!

Arrg Matey, There Be Treasure Here!!

I joining:

Linda at Coastal Charm for Nifty Thrifty Tuesdays

Dianne at A Picture is Worth 1,000 Words for Second Time Around Tuesday

Saturday's Treasure Hunt turned out to be great!

Not only at The Old Farm Estate Sale,

but at other sales too.

There was SO much to look at in many different buildings at the Estate Sale.

Very overwhelming...yippeeee! LOL

It was held by an Estate Sale Service,

so the prices were not as inexpensive as I would have liked. 

But there was still good buys to be had.

This is what I ended up comming home with...

Inspire pillow, Holiday Handkercheif,

cute litte heart shaped Pillows...   

Such a sweet Baby's Bonnet

Holiday Diecuts, old post cards (1918), old Easter Bunnies,

tiny Bottle Brush Wreaths,

Sweet Candle Sconce (I'm keeping it, love the color!)

and sweet chalkware Puppies in a Basket...this one has hooks on the bottom.

Everthing in the box was $6.00.

See the Bunny with the blue jacket above right,

this is what is has on the bottom.

Haven't seen this before.

So I actually got all these for $5.95 ;)

There were some garden statuary...

even after one couple loaded up their truck!

I walked out with these precious babies.

$10.00 each

So I spent a total of $36.00, 

Not to to bad. 

When we got back into town we headed
downtown to see if there were any Garage Sales.

Spied one, stopped and

found out she really wanted to get rid of everything!
