Niki, Bozy and Cody don't mind the noise at all but Buddy on the other hand, is completely terrified of it. Some kids were lighting off firecrackers a few weeks ago and he freaked so badly that he hurt himself trying to get under the deck that's only about 4" off of the ground. Needless to say I let him inside and he ran to our bed never to come back down that evening.

I am sooooo not looking forward to it this year.
