Pup Cup


 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Acknowledging this isn't something he should have on a regular basis, it was still fun to get Bear his first Starbucks pup cup. Which he devoured with gusto.

Night Terror

 










 

 

We are not fans of fireworks, especially personal ones. They should be banned outside of professional displays. But controversial opinion aside one of the biggest reasons is it scares the animals. Case in point we discovered Bear is absolutely terrified of fireworks. He ran all over, shivered, panted, was manic, tried to climb into a cabinet, then tried to climb over the three suitcases in the back of the closet. So well pulled the two soft-sides out, laid the hard shell over and made him a hidey hole, complete with a laptop playing Bluey to drown out the noise as best we could. That did seem to calm him down and we got through the night. TLDR: People stupid fireworks bad.

Another nice spread put out by Dad, whose steaks continue to be second to none. Although I have to admit, that key lime pie in the corner might have been a scene stealer.

Upper Fort

 











 

Up at Dad's for a 4th BBQ. The neighborhood girls built this little fort in his driveway from found bits and pieces. Just thought it was cute, he has a nice group up here.
