Happy Fourth of July!!! and happy birthday, my sweetie! #MFRWorg

Happy Fourth of July, our country's greatest day of the year
when we truly became a nation.
We celebrate with fireworks, cookouts, friends and family, and treats.
 

I've seen some memorable firework shows:
At the National Mall
In San Francisco harbor
From an office building's balcony
On a golf course
At a park along a river (could see three shows at the same time!)

Today, I celebrate also my girl, my cat Scooter. This year, she turned twenty-one. She can still jump on kitchen and bath counters, on my desk, chairs. Goes outside. Eats pretty good. Looks adoringly at #2 son.
 
Every day is a special day with her. Here's her picture although she looks grumpy. I don't think she likes her picture taken.

 
To all of you,
Happy Fourth of July!
 
 
To Scoo, with love,

Oh my, Scoo is ducking her head because she doesn't know what to think about all the birthday love. I say every day is precious with my girl.

Thanks, D'Ann, Mindy, and Angela!

Happy Birthday Scooter! Wow, 21, you go girl! And I thought it was amazing that my 13 year old got the occasional wild hair and ran through the apartment like his tail was on fire. (shhh, this is Eve Mardis, LOL)

Hi, Bailey/Eve! Every day with Scoo is precious. Of course, she has no idea she is so old. lol

Hi, Elaine. Thank you for the b'day wishes. She's not much of a cake eater, but I'll think of something extra, like tuna juice. Hugs.
