| Axl loves cuddles from T.🥰 |
After dealing with Axl for 2 weeks, he is FINALLY healed from his surgery. At least enough to get his stitches out and stop bleeding all over our carpet. I had just steamed cleaned all the carpets last month, now I am doing it again. Actually, I might just rip the carpet up, put some rugs down, and deal with getting new flooring when we can.

| Starbucks gave him a pup cup and at the pharmacy he got a Milkbone. Axl LOVES car rides!!! |
This is the first time since we moved here that the fourth has fallen on a weekend and the first fourth where it has rained so much that noone was afraid of grass fires. You would have thought we were at war with the neighboring street! It was so loud and constant for about 2 hours! Literally all but two houses on our street set off fireworks, us included. We had about $200 worth of fireworks that we never set off last year. It was actually a pretty good kit. I was happy with it. I am not big on the loud ones and the ones that send sparks flying around everywhere. This only had a couple that were super loud, most were some sort of fountain, which are my favorite. We made grilled burgers, baked beans, mac n cheese, and the kids' favorite for dessert, fruit pizza. Axl did pretty good in his crate UNTIL we started setting them off in our driveway and then I watched him on the camera escape from his kennel WHILE wearing his cone on his head! I swear he is Houdini! He only lets us contain him if he wants it. Otherwise, there is no controlling him! Thankfully, except for loud noises and rain he's a super good dog. T, A, and I ended up taking turns sitting with him in my bedroom while D set off all our fireworks. It was a fun night even with babysitting Axl. Unfortunately, we were up until about 11:30 pm and D had to get up at 4:00 am to go to work the next day so he was crazy tired. I ended up pulling an all nighter with Axl because someone set off fireworks pretty much all night so I was super tired too. In fact, I needed D to go by the grocery store to pick up something I needed to make for lunch at church and I had to ask the kids what the name of chips we dip in salsa was? Tortilla chips!😂 I was so tired I honestly couldn't remember. Thankfully, everyone enjoyed their fourth and the next night was much more quiet so we all slept super well.

| I still can't believe he squeezed through the corner with his cone on!! The give is only like 3-4 inches. |

| A helped D get everything set up. |

| I love the 4th! It's my favorite holiday after Xmas. It all about family, fun, and fellowship. It was so nice to not worry about burning anything down this year. |

| He calmly laid there as long as someone was with him watching tv ...he likes House Hunters😂 I always put it on when he is restless and it usually calms him right down...though admittedly I really don't want to have to have the tv on in the middle of the night. |
