Fun weekend




We had a fun relaxing weekend, for the most part. A lot of our friends came to town. We got to spend some time with them.

I was home by myself last night while Amos was out camping with some friends. I was in the bathroom and saw something flicker around the light in the hall. I was really hoping it was a big bug, but of course not- it was a huge bat. I couldn't believe it.
Of course my husband was gone and I was trapped in my bathroom. Esther's cats also saw the huge thing and were trying to catch it for me. If I wasn't so scared I would have been entertained by the active cats. Thankfully we have a door that opens to our second level porch so I quickly opened that to see if it would fly out. Of course a cat decided to go out there so I tried to rescue her before the bat got tangled in my hair or anything. So scary! I somehow got both cats in the bathroom with me before the bat or cat got attacked by the other. I didn't actually see the bat fly out the door, but he wasn't flying around anymore and the cats had calmed down. I slept in our room with the door closed and woke up several times with dreams that it was flying around my room.

So that's my interesting weekend. Amos is going to get in our attic and figure out where the heck they are coming from.

This next week or so is going to be fun and busy! My sisters are coming to town and we have my cousin's wedding plus three showers for Ruthann, including one me and Rebekah are throwing. Then I will be in DeWitt for a week doing wedding stuff and enjoying a week off work!

Oh you poor thing! I know the fear you are talking about, we have had a bat on 2 occasions in our house. They are so creepy and nasty.
