Bee Attack!

Our poor little boys were attacked by a swarm of bees! A fun afternoon of playing on Mimi's play set ended up with lots of tears. We did not know that a hive a hibernating bees were under one of the steps and the boys playing would disturb them. Both boys were stung more than 10 times. Colby's lip swelled quickly and we had to remove a stinger from his left side. When the attack happened the boys came running into the house and we immediately starting stripping their clothes. We killed 13 bees that came out of their clothes, and several more that had followed them in. Both boys were very scared, but felt much better after a baking soda bath.
