Bats, oh no.

Well, this was not a very restful night. After we got the kids in bed, Jonathan and I went to our room to watch a little TV. And that is when the fun started. There partway through the show a BAT fell from the ceiling just outside our doorway. We quickly shut the door and hoped our cat, Merlin would take care of if. Or actually wondered if he had done something to it. After all of the running around and closing doors and putting Merlin in places and all, we discovered that there was not one but two bats in the house. The night ended with Jonathan getting his gun and trying to take them out. In the end we had one dead bat and one missing one. Now believe me, I don't really mind bats as long as they are not swooping around over my bed. It was a long night. And I am not looking forward to it happening again tonight.
