Happy 4th of July Asta!
I am a bit late with my greetings, but I am glad you had a grand time!
It sounds like you had a great day. I did get to enjoy some treats, but I do not do well with loud noises. I was a nervous wreck and I am glad it is over. You look nice snugging in bed.
licks and sniffs, Sasha
We watched your fireworks from our living room and were sure you all were enjoying them too!!!
Wirey love,
Jake and Just Harry
Hi Asta
Fantastic Smilebox - we loved it - the lovely colours of the fireworks and the wonderful pictures of you and Duffy - plus your humans!
Looks like you all had the best of times celebrating with family and friends.
Lots of great food too - glad you showed duffy the best positions to get some food!
Have a good rest today.
love

We watched some of those on TeeVee, and thought of you and Mommi and Daddi. How nice that they could stay with you and Duffy, and not have to sit outside. Thank you for sharing all the photos. We hope you have a good sneep.

Hi kousin Asta,
Great slide show. I loved all your pictures!
Your boomers must have been awesome! And what a tremendous vantage point! You got a beautiful, clear view and didn't have most of the noise. And you had great company to enjoy it all with. It doesn't get any better than that!
Did Duffy ever turn around and watch the show? Sometimes guys can be so dense.
I had an awful time with the noise that we had here. I tried to hide under the table, but it didn't work out too well. Next year I'll have to find a better place than that to hide, or else leave town.
As for the next couple of days, I am doing exactly what your are doing. Today I slept until almost noon. And I'm taking a nap now. I hope 4th of July doesn't come again for a long time.
Great post, Asta! Thanks for all those super pictures!
Love and Koobuss Kisses,
Kousin Koobie
It sounds like you had a beautiful Independence Day celebration! Our 'pooter doesn't want us to see the Smilebox pictures right now, so we'll have to come back later for the show. But we imagined you last night as we watched the NYC fireworks on TV. How lucky you are that you saw them right out your window. And how nice it is that you weren't scared of the booms. We we happy inside (the pops and booms were quieter) and the ones on the television didn't bother us. But when it came time to go outside one last time before bedtime.... well, let's just say I had to hold my peepee all night long. I couldn't begin to relax and let it go last night. I bolted for the door to go back inside, instead. Those weren't angels bowling in heaven, Daddi, they were 'splosions down on the beach!! Scary! (But beautiful.)
Tell Mommi we hope she's feeling a bit better.
Love,
Miss Fergi (and Jake. He's sleeping)
Asta!
You're back!
I'm back too!

Thank you for sharing your fireworks. They were so beautiful. Momma's eyes kept leaking listening to that song and watching your fireworks. She is very emotional.
Is your half brother a doofus or what? You just keep working on him.

Hi Asta,
It looks like you had a great celebration - even with no garden or grill!! What amazing photos! (but then - as I always keep saying - you always have the BEST parties!!!) - especially of the fireworks! WOW! You must have the best view in the city from your windows!
My human, Paul, had his birthday on the 4th of July but my humans tell me that it is also sort of like the birthday of your country and that is why you have fireworks! :-)
Slobbers,
Honey the Great Dane

Lots of Licks, Ruby
You are so lucky that you're not scared of the boomers, Asta! I couldn't decide if I wanted to hide under mom's nightstand or dad's! It was just awful! I'm so glad the fourth of July is over for a whole year!
Your watermelon sure looks yummy!
Love ya lots,
Maggie and Mitch
Hi, Asta...
Wow...You really did have a front row seat...
Your Smilebox is Great...
OMdoG...Those burgers looked yummy!!!
Abby xxxooo
Wow!
That's fabulous fireworks show Asta!
Right in front of your window at your eye level just like your own pay per view HBO!
My dad drove to his work next to the airport to have a BBQ pawty and watching fireworks, the view was nice and clear but nothing compared with yours!
Hugs to your mom, wet licks to her sore neck, does your mom need physical therapy besides pain pills, muscle relaxant, heat and cold pack? My dad had neck pain and arm pain before, the surgeon said no surgery for now, my dad went through all kinds of therapy including the scary device that hung on the door to pull his neck out, ewww!
Asta, I wore the suit that you dressed me to Scooby's wedding, they oooh and ahhh and said I look "dapper".
Thanks to you again and again, Asta, muahhhh!
Welcome back, and don't ever think about leaving again.
The show was great, thanks for sharing, it felt like we were right there with you - awesome-looking sandwiches.
Woos, the OP Pack

Hi, Asta -
Kaci is like you and Duffy. The fireworks don't seem to bother her but they really bother me (Hershey).
I can't wait for the fireworks to be over!
Love -
Hershey and Kaci
Hurrah - you're back!!! I actually learned to be a big dog this 4th and did not spend the whole night hiding! Mom says I'm growing up!!
- Charlie
Hi Asta! So glad you're back. We haven't been around lately and to think we almost lost you at blogger!
So sorry to hear about your mom's neck. Hope she takes plenty of rest and get all better soon! LS said she understand how your mommi feels. She has hurt her wrists too and it certainly frustrates her a lot.
And bad bad picasa! We didn't know about this either. Thanks for sharing. LS said she'll try to search for the wonderful pictures you and your mommi made previously. Hopefully she has them.
Wow! What a grat smilebox!Hope your mummy is feeling better!
We are back! We have missed all our DWB friends.
Simba and Jazzi xx
Happy fourth, Asta and Mommi! Hope your week is terrific!
whisker swizzles,
Lovey (for Charlie's DogBlog)
OMG...I am so glad you are not quitting! I am just getting word about the lost pictures and your mum not feeling well and how sad you all were about stuff going on. My mum gets really busy these days and she gets upset and thinks about taking a break from blogging, because she is unable to visit everyone everyday and then she gets farther behind in helping me and then now her camera is all messed up, so no new pictures of me and my birthday party or 4th of July or anything. sometimes we all need a little break and what is so great is if you do take breaks, no one forgets you and its like you are never gone. I thank everyone everywhere for being such great pals and so understanding...and I for one would miss you greatly if you ever went away. Big paw hugs and smoochie kisses...Please don't tell Stanley I sent you kisses cuz I think he could woop my butt for sure.
Deetzy
Asta,
It looks like the perfect 4th to me! I'm so glad you had such a great time! The fireworks were a little scary, but my mama protected me! You look adorable as Lady Liberty!!
Love,
Janie
Um...well...the fireworks were even worse than ever this year...Mumsie put me on her lap and we watched Dogs 101 which just happened to feature the WFT...he was totally sweet!!!! And then we watched Happy Feet with the volume up really loud...
I fell asleep in my crate and woke up six...yes 6 times in the course of 3 hours...and Mumsie had to go in to work in the morning...I was just so UPSET, Asta...
Scheshceesch...hoomans and their fireworks...
Love ya girlie....
Lacie
Oh my...we just looked at your smiley box....how in the world did you take all thos fab pix THROUGH your windows???? Was Mommi hanging half way out the building?????? THEY WERE AMAZING!!! Just the way I like em....SILENT!!!
We need to thank Eric and his country for screwing up the tea so we could have these fireworks!!!!
Those burgers looked fantabulous, Asta....did ya save us a bite???
Love ya lots my sweet sissy, mommy, auntie or whatever!!!
Your Scruffy bro...
pee ess Duffy couldn't find the fireworks cuz his ears were facing the wrong street!!!!!
Oh Asta! My momma and I were away for the long weekend, and we come back to see that you have had a difficult few days.
I'd just like to send a hug your way and tell you how glad I am about your change of heart. Your bloggie was one of the first we ever saw, and part of the reason I started blogging. You are one of the major threads that holds DWB together. Never, EVER leave! Ok?
Love,
Pearl
Welcome back!
Sounds like you had a fine Independence Day. We did too! Mom and my Daddy went to the Roswell UFO Festival and the Wall that Heals. When they came home we napped and chillaxed all afternoon and then watched fireworks from our backyard. OK they were outside while we stayed in where it was not so noisy.
Dear Asta, Guess what?! What! Our human is a dunce too! Also, this is a truly outstanding bunch of posts here not only for your totally awesome return but also for the teaching us of this new werd, dunce! We looked it up and whew! Boy, really, all the humans have some dunce-i-city in them! Becuz they are humans and not dogs. Also, we think your mom is allowed to over-react every once in a whiles becuz truthfully, your mom is so considerate and generous with her time and efforts that, well, she should just be allowed. OK Asta, you're the best! Two Paws UP! Love, your PaLs, LuLu and LoLLy!
happy 4th of july - hope you had a wonderful weekend -
Woodrow, Sweetie & MJ
What a great 4th you had. Great food, great friends and a great view.
The Red's are deaf they hear nothing. I knew that so I didn't get upset at all so they were none the wiser...
Big Sloppy Kisses
Gus, Louie and Callie

Mom loves fireworks and she loved all of those pictures. Yours are a million times better than the ones we have here. I am not sure what Duffy was so preoccupied with, but it must have been good!!
Our mommy loves fireworks and even the sound of them! Thanks for sharing...
Hope you had a wonderful 4th July weekend.
Wowsa! That is some awesome light show! We're so glad you are back!
That was a beautiful slide show. You are so lucky to be able to sit in your living room and watch it.
That smilebox was pawtastic! These fireworks are much better than the real thing.
Love -
Hershey and Kaci
Well we like your fireworks better(no noise) We spent the night in the bedroom with the air conditioner and the radio on and we had a few cocktails if ya know what I mean....PL1 and 2 went dwon to the big fireworks and said they were PAWSOME!! We think Duffy had the right idea..Love A+A
I didn't hear a thing! Meanwhile, I'm just now catching up! Soooo glad you decided to stay in the blogging world! I would have missed you very much!

Hi Asta
I'm glad you had a good view. We did too but I decided to stay inside on the couch.

Wow! What beewootiful boomies!
We didn't get to see or hear any boomies this year. :( We were visiting a town where they cancelled the boomies because of rain, then we drove home where they had already had the boomies. :( Aah, well. Next year!
Wuv,
Gus and Waldo

Oh dear.. You sure look very sleepy in the last picture. ;)
But did you have a fun celebration?
~ Bae
Looks like you had a tasty holiday!
Surprisingly, will all of my quirks and crazies I am totally chill at home with the sound of fireworks. Go figure! But perhaps next time I should throw a fit to get some of those tasty burgers that your people had. Hmmmm....
Happy snoozeling with your folks.
I'll tell you what, Asta ~~ those fireworks made me shake all over. I don't like them.
I just adore YOU
