Lovely Bones

I first discovered Beach Bungalow 8
(see this earlier post for more on 1st Dibs)
I've enjoyed following Megan's blog ever since.



Thought I'd share my favorite post to date
from Beach Bungalow 8, called Lovely Bones.
I think anyone who has lived in
an older home can relate.
Enjoy!

We took a chance on love... and got burned!

Remember this cute picture
posted on Friday?
We here @ The Dog must have been
under some Valentine spell
filled with warm & fuzzy thoughts
wanting to spread some love
to our daily passerbys
We knew it was risk...
even talked about it Friday evening...
should we leave them up?
Who would dare to take them?
It's Valentine's Day after all!
Well... here's our answer:

for the 'getaway' click here
* note: if you recognize these 2 punks
or their getaway car,
Thanks... and btw, we still *heart* you
and hope your Valentine's was Happy!
