this is happiness

This last August, we took Petunia, our loving/funny bulldog to the beach for the first time ever in her life.  She LOVED it.

My mom loves to remind me how cold and land-locked I am in Provo by texting me every once and awhile: "Have a great day! Heading off to the beach house!"  Gag me with a spoon.  This happened to me this week right as Utah decided that it's time to be cold.  

Then she made it worse by sending me this video.

I miss my doggy and the beach and my family and Oregon.  There lies my true happiness :)
