More Critters!
We have had much rain in these parts lately and no free days that were dry enough to cut the grass. (Well the front yard had been cut once but that was it.) Needless to say, the Amazon rainforests had nothing on us. Timmy couldn't go out in the back or we would lose him, and he is a tall 3 1/2 year old! 
Well, Wednesday was the day. Jay pulled out the lawn mower (I really thought he would need a brush hog!) and mowed all day long. In the process, however, he found some new residents for the aquarium. The first time he knocked on the door he told Sarah to bring out a jar and this is what she brought back in. 
We call him Chubby! The next knock at the door had the same request and this time a new creature.
Okay, I know there is a terrible smudge on the aquarium but this picture cracks me up. It makes me want to put a caption on it that says, "Let me tell you how I can save you 15% or more on auto insurance." 
The next two times Jay knocked on the door Sarah picked up the jar before even finding out what he wanted and sure enough, in came two more lizards.
So we currently have an aquarium full of amphibians (reptiles?) at our house. And many prayers that those lizards don't find a way to crawl up and out of the top of the aquarium!
