Loud Noises and Booms

During this past week, there have been LOTS of loud hisses and booms around our house, along with bright flashes of light. My humans went outside and watched some of them. We heard lots of laughter and kids yelling, too. It sounded like they were having fun. I was ok with most of the noises, but the later they went into the night, the more nervous I was. I walked from the front of the house to the back of the house, but I didn’t whine. There were some bad storms, too, with loud booms and flashes, but they were different than the other lights and noises.
