๐Ÿพ Happy National Dog Day! ๐Ÿพ

Today is for the four-legged family members who somehow manage to take up the entire bed, leave hair on everything, and act like they havenโ€™t eaten in three days when dinner was 20 minutes ago. ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿถ

Whether theyโ€™re your adventure buddy, couch potato, personal shadow, or professional treat inspector, life is just better with dogs. โค๏ธ

Drop a picture of your pup in the comments so we can celebrate them today! ๐Ÿพ๐Ÿ“ธ

Weโ€™re still recovering from all the celebrating โ€” but what a weekend it was! โค๏ธ

Saturday was all about Dylan & Jazzmine as they officially tied the knot, and then Sunday we kept the celebration going at The Castle with their Wedding Day After Party! ๐ŸŽ‰

A HUGE thank you to Absent Ground for bringing the music and making Sunday afternoon one heck of a good time. ๐ŸŽธ๐Ÿป And, of course, thank you to everyone who came out to celebrate the newlyweds, enjoy some drinks, and spend the afternoon with us.

There was plenty of love, laughter, music, cold drinks, and maybe a few people who were still feeling Saturday night. ๐Ÿ˜‚

Most importantly, congratulations again to Mr. & Mrs. Morgan! ๐Ÿฅ‚ Weโ€™re so happy we got to be a part of your wedding weekend and celebrate two of our own. โค๏ธ
