Independence Day...

As Handsome, Tag and I travel homeward on this Independence Day, 
we will take time to count the blessings
that come with being an American...
Pride in our country,
Optimism for our future,
Gratitude for the wisdom of our forefathers,

We are thankful for the precious gift of Freedom 
because of the sacrifices of those who came before...

and we are forever indebted to those
 who continue to serve to protect our rights
here and abroad.

God Bless America!
This picture of Tag was taken on his Gotcha Day!
I also want to remember that this is the first anniversary
of the day that Tag came to live with us.
We picked him up in Michigan on July 4, 2011.
Lucky us!!
