FROG BLOG

Ok, So for a second I thought the world was being takin' over by frogs. My husband went down into our basement a couple of mornings ago and there was aprox. 20 frogs hangin' out on our tile floor. They had worked their slimy bodies between the door jam and came into party. Thank goodness I was at work or else I would have freaked out. After investigation, a frog hatchery had been laid in the drain outside our basement door. We have hundreds of frogs, and I mean hundreds, crawling out of the drain at all hours of the day. We have let our kids keep about 12. The rest have gone to every neighbor, nephew, and cousin. John catches about 30 a day and lets them go in our flower beds. At the moment, he is frustrated while trying to catch a live fly for their dinner. I am kind of creeped out, but at least they are staying out of our house. I just have to keep reminding myself they are only frogs. Here are a few pictures of their takeover.
Just a few stragglers. John had already taken 20 or more to the back field

Some of Cameron's newest best friends. I think those one's are marshmallow and pancake.

THINGS TO LOVE!!

Right now everything in my life is going so smooth. I have so many things to be thankful for, so I decided to list a few. Most are obvious......
My yard, and I don't mean my actual yard but yard work. I would do yard work over house work any day. The bushes and flowers are finally filling in the beds. People might think my husband is crazy for getting me a stick edger for Mother's Day, but it was the perfect present.

I love my hubby, and my hubby helping with the yard work. Rare site, but that is ok...I would rather him leave it up to me.


Love the family..... especially my sisters and mother.


My 98 year old grandma I help care for. Blessing in disguise.


Love... my overwhelming, but very rewarding church calling as Young Women's President.



And last but not least..... my stubborn, yet very loving Mitch.


Spoiled mommy's girl, Gabby Cake


and my crazy camera happy Cameron.
