Ethan Jonah: The mouse is in the house....

Ethan: Well... lets just say there has been a mouse in our house lately and we have been trying to catch it by putting sticky paper all over the house.

Brodie:From the begining please.

Ethan: I just want to get to the point!

B: I don't care..just start from the beginning

E: Well, mom smelled something in the cupboard- that smelled like a rotten onion, so she told me to go and hunt down the thing that was smelling bad. So when I opened the cupboard I saw a furry object with a tail run into the plastic bags that we have the cupboard. So, I'm just yelling, "Mouse, mouse, mouse... " Well, Dad and Brodie and Drew came and started tearing the cupboard apart looking for the mouse. All of a sudden the mouse darts out of the cupboard and runs towards the balcony, and its starts hiding under the propane tank.

Brodie: It basically skids around..like a cartoon character.

Ethan: So, we are poking around the propane tank trying to get the mouse to come out. All of a sudden, the mouse darts out from underneath the propane tank and runs underneath the stove. So now when mom was making pie for Father's Day, she heard a blood-curdling scream from the stove.

Brodie: Can I inject? Like, a high pitched squeal!!! Hablador!! (liar)

Ethan: So, yeah, mom heard a squeal. The next time we cooked something, we heard another scream.

So now....today. We haven't been catching anything on the sticky paper lately, and this has been really making me mad. Today, when I was walking past one of the sticky papers, (Ethan is upside down on his head right now.." I think better when all my blood is rushing to my head." "Wait, delete that!!") I noticed that it was upside down so I decided to flip it over, but my hand got stuck to the paper. I was trying to shake off the sticky stuff by waving my hand around frantically, but what I didn't know is that my hand wasn't the only thing stuck to the paper!!! Our mouse was stuck to the paper too, and because it was taking such a wild ride, it started to SCREAM!!

Brodie: I guess we learned that the mouse was not cooked after all.

Ethan: So, I'm just yelling, "A mouse is stuck to the ..."

Brodie: Whoa, I remember this better..it sound more like, "YAAAAAAAAAHHHH"

Ethan: Giggles Well, to make a long story short, we decided to kill it

Brodie- it's not short

Ethan: We decided to kill it by whacking it on its head to make it unconscience (still on sticky paper). But what we accidently did, is that we missed it's head, and accidently hit it's stomach, making all the organs in his body bleed out his mouth..

Brodie: nose, mouth and eyes!

Ethan: So, we were thinking, what do we do with the bloody body? Here's what we decided to do. We took it outside on the driveway and piled sheets of paper on it, and along with 10 lit matches and some sticks. And we had a little bon fire. Too bad he had to end that way.

Carrie: Ok, the entire time, Bob and I were at work. We got updates via messenger. I'm not sure if I wanted to home for this or not.

Side note: yesterday our power voltage reading in our house was at 30 volts for the entire night. The lights would go on, but it was like night lights! Very weird!
FYI: There is a GIANT rhino beetle flying around my dining room right now!
