1st 4th

I forgot to take my camera to the fireworks, so I had to take a picture of her today, because I can't get enough of this adorable dress.  See her sad scratched-up nose?  The day we got home from Colorado we were unloading the car and she was inside.  We propped open the door so we could go in and out easier, and when we weren't looking she walked outside and fell face first off this step she's sitting on. 

She didn't like the firecrackers, they scared her.  We bought a bunch that we never used because we didn't want to make her cry anymore.  When the fireworks started she almost jumped out of her skin every time one went off, but soon she got used to it and didn't care anymore.  She was really tired and kind of cranky, and just wanted to go to bed.  I'd say it was a better 4th of July than last year, though when we went and held her in the hospital, then had to leave her there.  Much better.
