This evening I was wandering around the house, picking up random toys and doing the usual nightly cleanup. I heard the Dustbuster roar to life… MWRAAAAAR… and figured Laralee had found some cracker crumbs to vacuum or something.
Everything was quiet.
MWRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAR.
Quiet.
MWRAAAAR.
This repeated a dozen times before I decided I’d better figure out what was happening. It turns out that Alex and Kyra had taken it upon themselves to clean the house of ants. It’s some kind of spring migration season, so we’ve seen handfuls of ants parading boldly around the house for the past week or so.
They were going around the downstairs, looking for these teensy ants crawling around, then snagging them with the Dustbuster.
MWRAAAAAAAAR.
