The Bee Saga continues... and other stuff...

So, last week, I wrote about the Wall of Bees. We won that round, with the help of an exterminator. I was pretty happy that they were gone and we could relax in our home again. Then, it started... that's right... They're back! Steve caught bees in the house twice this weekend. Once in the bathroom upstairs and once in the our bedroom. Hmm... I guess we didn't get rid of them and they are coming in from somewhere else.

So, Steve is off to call the exterminator again. Luckily we signed up for a year service instead of by the visit. We think they have managed to get into either the bathroom vent tube or the attic somehow. Sigh...

Funny thing though... The "bee" wasn't a bee! Annde sees it sitting - dead - on the window sill in our room (Dad went to get some bee spray) and says to me, "Mom! That's not a bee... that's a wasp! They like ripe fruit! They must be after the yummy plums in the fridgerator... Don't give them any cause they are for me. Dad said so!" Priceless, eh?

We also took Annde to her first college (Michigan State whooped up on Eastern Michigan) football game. Decked out in her new cheerleader outfit and a big white bow (her choice), we sat in the end zone area. Too bad Annde just wasn't interested. After 5 minutes, she asked for her "workin' book cards" (they are educational flash cards she can write on with a dry erase marker). She did them and colored in some small coloring books for the whole game. When Dad asked if she wanted to sit on his lap and watch the game (in the 3rd quarter) she said, "Nope, Dad, I'm still learning..." She's my little STUDENT athlete, eh?

The other funny thing is now, in addition to running in circles in the backyard, she puts objects in the way to play her "runnin' and jumpin' game". Guess she's going to be a hurdler, eh? :) Must be something in the genes...
