not a creature was stirring, except for a mouse...

yesterday morning the girls (mabel, ky, lu, suzie, kim and i) were getting ready to go to costco to pick up a few things. first mabel and i went outside to make sure the seats were cleared off in the mdx. as we were folding up one of the very back seats a little brown mouse made its way to the front of the car. being girls we screamed and we went and got a boy to help us. droo came out and found a little nest that belonged to the mouse under one of the back seats...here is a picture of all the stuffing he used from inside the seat for his nest.

after taking 2 separate cars to run our errands, a trip to cal-ranch for mouse tape and blob of crunchy peanut butter...we caught the little mouse...if you look closely you can see him on the left under the seat.

we figure that the mouse lived in a box that was in the garage and when we put the box into the mdx to take it to goodwill he made the mdx his new home!
