Invasion

In this hot and humid season, we'll turn the air conditioning on. One evening there was a wonderful breeze, so off went the air conditioner. Rob ran to every room and opened the windows to let the breeze in. I was in the kitchen cooking, when I saw a bug fly by. What was that? Then another! Then I heard the kids in the other room saying there's bugs flying everywhere. Apparently, it's termite season and they were attracted to the lights in our house. All our windows have screens on them, but they were crawling in wherever they could find a crack. While I continued to cook, Rob, Kelly, Steph, and Cori Anne (Lauren couldn't handle the bugs!) were all armed with brooms swatting the flying termites. They were coming in EVERY room, bathroom, kitchen....It was actually hilarious! We now know that during this season, you need to keep your windows closed and the drapes drawn. Good to know for next year!!
