...after seeing this.

It's called a vole. It's kind of like a mouse, only smaller.

My sister was cleaning up the front porch when she moved our dad's boots, and out jumped a vole which quickly ran into the corner! She screamed much like Spongebob in the episode "Graveyard Shift." It was actually pretty funny!

I then went outside, got a stick and encouraged it into a bucket. It was so cute! Then I released it into the wild, under a bush across our street.

So, that's the most eventful thing that's happened so far today. However, our grandparents will be visiting for a week or so for Christmas. We'll be celebrating it with them a little early this year, because they already have plans for Christmas day.

That, and we're having tacos for dinner!
