...in the Christmas container full decorations.
My kids and I moved from an apartment back in September. At the last apartment we had a bit of problems with mice last winter. Not only did we have the problem but our neighbors did too. After that winter the mice seemed to have left because we didn't have problems from that time on. I kept the container in a big walk-in closet.
Now mind you, there are some Halloween stuff in there since we don't have a large collection of holiday stuff. As I'm sitting there seperating lights and other holiday stuff, I hear my 4 year old daughter say..."momma, this is a cute Halloleen toy, I have a pider and a cute wittle mouse"...I'm thinking, ok, she found the spider but I've never had a halloween "mouse" ....there in her hand was a dried up old mouse....ewwwwwww. It must have been in there since last Christmas.
