I bet your wondering what my husband is doing in his beanie and long sleeve shirt when it's 115 degrees outside! I bet your even more curious as to what is under that cup. Chances are you'll never guess!
So Monday night I get a phone call from my cute sitter, Tayler Horn. Her and her cute friend are screaming and giggling as they tell me there is a BAT flying around my house. Jeremy and I are at Moon Valley Country Club for the preliminary swim championships so there is no way we can get home to help them. I call my brother who runs over there to see what's up. He checks the house and calls us with no sighting of the BAT. In all honesty we don't think there is really a BAT in our house but possibly a small bird or even one of those fat black bumble bees. So Tuesday night comes around and once again we are at Moon Valley for the swimming championships. Tayler texts me again saying the BAT is back but she didn't see where it went. Jeremy and I are puzzled as to what is going on. Why would a BAT only come out when Tayler Horn is babysitting? Why haven't we seen this BAT? What is going on? Well, late Tuesday night as I'm sleepily brushing my teeth, I see this black fuzzy thing sitting on my bathroom counter. It is little and looks a lot like a rat, only it has pointy ears, like a BAT. I freak and start yelling for Jeremy. Jeremy throws on all his hunting gear, minus the rifle and shot gun and goes to work. He too is freaking cause this thing is gross and creepy and by now we have discovered, it is a BAT!! He traps the thing by putting a cup over it and transports it outside. I kid you not, when this thing opened it's wings, it was as big as an eagle and gross, gross, gross! Eventually it flew away with it's BAT friends who oddly enough came swooping around when we removed the cup and waited for him to fly away. Jeremy and I were so grossed out by time the whole event was over. We are praying that Mr. BAT is really the one Tayler and her friend saw flying around and that we don't have a BAT cave somewhere in our attic or dark corner.
Oh my gosh!! Is that a BAT in my house?
