I just shot a mouse!!! No, I'm not kidding. We've had a mouse living in our pantry for almost four days, and today Dad caught him/it. (We named it Earl Templeton Mickey IV, in case you were wondering.) So, Dad caught it with our claw thingy. Actually, first he barricaded himself in our pantry to try and catch it in a live rat trap, but he escaped into the kitchen (this daring escapade was soon followed by many screams and jumps and terrification) and Dad hit him with the claw and immobolized him and then he was really caught. Then I loaded up our gun and shot the mouse. Thus ended Earl Templeton Mickey IV. It was really excited, and I think everyone's adrenaline is still pumping. Sarah took a video, but it's too long too upload. I might be able to post some of it and maybe some pictures later.

I'm going to change the background to something a little more exciting, and add text to my piture...but it's a start. :)

What do you think?

So, I'm totally redesigning my blog, but I hit a few speed bumps, and it's not quite there yet. I created a beautiful banner (multiple, actually...it was kinda addicting :), but when I attempted to upload it onto my blog, it shrunk!!! I was not happy, and I found a beautiful background, but it costs money (the nerve!), so I'm back to square one as far as that goes. so, enjoy the blank white slate, and hopefully my blog will have a whole new look sometime this weekend.
