We finally caught the mouse! As of right now, we don't think there are any mice! Tuesday night, Josh went to Lowes and got some better built traps. We put it under the bathtub, and that darn mouse figured out a way to eat the peanut butter without setting the trap off! Darn thing! I said we would try these traps one more time, and then, we were getting your sticky traps, Christine! (Josh didn't want a sticky trap at first because he said he didn't want the mouse looking at him while he disposed of it- he wanted the thing dead). Well, Josh rigged up the mouse trap so that even one of Lindsay's tiny socks set it off. Whoever assembled these traps at the factory had put the pin on backwards. So anyways, we got that all figured out and set 3 traps last night. About 4 this morning, we heard a SNAP! The mouse was caught! Josh left 2 of the traps under there, just incase we have any more visitors.
So, a little of topic, we enjoy watching Home Improvement reruns on Nick at Nite. We were watching it last night, and Tim was talking about "Building a better mousetrap". We laughed because Josh had just barely "built a better mouse trap". I guess it was funny if you were there. Anyways, I wish I could watch Home Improvement in order, because they just play the reruns randomly and its kind of hard to follow the story and what's happening. Also, there are a few inconsistencies- Like I never know if Al is dating Eileen, or Trudy, or if he is single. I know you can get them on Netflix, but I don't want to pay for that right now. I wonder if you can buy the whole series on ebay or something.
So, now that the mouse is gone, I don't know what I'm going to blog about. Maybe our trip to Twin Falls this weekend! We're going with my parents to the Temple Open House and going to dinner. I'm excited. Then Sunday, we're celebrating my SIL's birthday.

Congrats on being mouse free for the moment!
Yay! I hate mice. We had them on base this last winter. If you can find them, Decon makes a round one that you put the peanut butter in and twist it. Well the mouse crawls in and it snaps shut so it can't get out. It eats the decon and dies in the trap and you never have to see it. I loved them because I had to dispose of them since Derek was gone.
