This is what we have planned at the moment for OUR “4th of July” CELEBRATION!  Daddy is getting ready to grill some ribs and Mummy will put on some baked beans, but I don’t think that involves the 4 of us.  We aren’t having anyone come over and our parents plan on just staying at home.  Right now, we are pretty content to just CHILL OUT and nap the afternoon away.  We can see several different sets of fireworks displays from our backyard, so our parents will sit outside on our dock without us when it gets dark and watch those go off.  When the popping noise gets too close to the house, Addie Mae and Tulip will get scared, and they will want to sit in Mummy’s lap.  They will have to come inside when that happens to cuddle with those two.  Katie and I are pretty cool about the noise.  What do YOU have planned for the day?  Are any of YOUR babies super scared of the loud popping noises?

We are staying home too. That nap is a great idea! I’m very afraid of the booms! I shake!!! And hide! Mummy finds me and holds me tight until it stops. Glad you and Katie are so brave. My brother Mario loved it! He would run , spin, and bark at them before he went over the rainbow bridge. Happy 4th of July! ??????

No big plans … fireworks with the neighbors later. One of our 3 furbabies (Gracie) doesn’t like fireworks, thunder or riding in a car, but the other two (Macie and Bentley) are just fine with all of that! Wishing you and yours a safe and Happy 4th!??

I don’t have any plans today. I’m just staying home with my fur babies. We can see the fireworks from our home so we are relaxing here. Have a wonderful day.

We are hosting an All American cookout and pool party for our neighborhood. It will be strange with masks and social distancing and no interactive games! Only 10 people in the pool …we drew a seniors obstacle course. We are having fireworks on the big screen, Red Skeltons pledge of allegiance and closing with Proud to be an American. It will be different this year, but we will still celebrate our independence!

Oh that sounds perfect! Don’t you love it when you can see a big fireworks display right from your house and you don’t have to get into all of the traffic and crowds?!?!?!

No plans here. Right now it’s storming in Central Florida. I’ll probably make pizza and put a movie on. Enjoy your night watching fireworks. Lulu is afraid. She will be wearing her thunder shirt with T-away essential oil and her lavender calming collar. I also have CBD oil as a last resort!

No plans here. The city has changed venues for the fireworks display this year. I don’t think we will even be able to hear it. My daughter’s kitty, Bean, will be happy. She is the only one out of 7 that gets scared by loud noises.

Enjoy your 4th. We are having another quiet day at home. Mommy’s mouth is watering with hearing your daddy is doing those ribs and mommy those baked beans. Mommy recently switch to gluten free and she’s been a tad bit hungry. Guess that will go away with time. Our sister Fawn~Fawn gets so stressed out with fireworks. She almost puts mommy into tears. Mommy is going to try some of Sugar’s CBD oils on her. You all have an awesome day. Happy 4th. Love, mommy and the 3T’s❤️??❤️

I have heard lots of friends brag about the CBD oil so perhaps it will work for you. Mummy is baking up a batch of “lemon glazed cookies” for after dinner tonight… I guess that doesn’t help with your new diet though… oops!

Have a Safe and Happy 4th of July. I Have 4 Furbabies too. But only 2 of them get scared. I take them in our bedroom with Dark our Curtains and the TV on Loud and put them in bed with me. They are fine.

We are staying home today too. We had grilled hamburgers and macaroni salad. Holly shared some of our asparagus too. She is scared to death of the fireworks. She shakes and pants all night long until they finally stop. Hope you all had a great day!! ??????

The babies all wore their little July outfits to Hobby Lobby today and then we ate pizza in the camper! It was a great July 4 but we won’t be doing any fireworks.

Staying home also. The power has been out since about 5:30 pm & that’s about the time the fireworks started. My almost 13 year old yorkie, Shilah has been scared. The darkness in the house & the fireworks. Also he is going blind. My other Yorkie & 2 Maltese are doing ok. They have been quiet as little mice. Everybody is in the bed now despite no a/c. The fireworks have slowed down.Still waiting on the power to come back one. Happy 4th everyone! Mommy, Shilah, Paisley, Chyna & Whitney

Sheltered at home. The numbers of cases have been rising in Alabama, so we’re staying in most of the time now. The fireworks don’t bother Lexie at all, thank goodness.

My 3 are very afraid of thunderstorms and fireworks or loud booms of any kind. They’ve been setting off fireworks here and Scruffy is so afraid he doesn’t even want to go outside and he PEED in my BED the last 2 nights because he’s afraid to go out. Peanut is still going potty outside and Isabella goes on her puppy pads. It was awful here it sounded like we were in WWIII. I took some cute photos of Isabella in her 4th of July outfit but we pretty much stayed at home like we have been doing.

THE FOURTH OF JULY AND THE AIR AND WATER SHOW IN AUGUST PRODUCE A LOT OF NOISE. THE FOURTH’S FIREWORKS AND JETS BREAKING THE SOUND BARRIER OVER HEAD MADE ME A NERVIOUS WRECK WHEN WE MOVED HERE 20 YEARS AGO. NOW, I JUST TUNE OUT ALL THAT NOISE AND FOCUS ON THE CLASSICAL MUSIC ON WFMT THAT I LISTEN TO ALL DAY.
 
HOPE YOU GIRLS AND YOUR MASTER AND MISTRESS HAD A PLEASANT FOURTH OF JULY.

Love seeing all the babies chillin!! We just stayed home yesterday, Tacker wasn’t liking the fireworks at all. I like the idea of the loud TV. We usually go into an inside room where they’re harder to hear. AND, I have to ask, where did you find that adorable house that Tulip is in? I bet she feels nice and safe in there. Hope you all had a nice and safe weekend.

Hello Sweet Millie,We also had a quiet 4th of July here in Southern California. I did celebrate with a gluten free brownie and vanilla ice cream for my dessert. Ivy (cat) even got 1/4 teaspoonful of ice cream because it was a special occasion! And guess what? My tomato plants are FULL of tomatoes…when they ripen I can make that delicious tomato pie from your cookbook!

Hope you all had a safe 4th. We stayed at home. I had to sedate all four of mine. This has been going on since Memorial Day week-end. Almost every night . The fourth was really bad. Last night was a little bit better.Hopefully they will run out soon! Then the kids can get a good night sleep. Stay safe and be well.
