frogs?


So apparently an absolute fear and disgust of reptiles is not hereditary. Brenna recently came home from a friend's house with a "pet" toad. Her sisters couldn't wait to get their hands, or at least their fingers on it. I took the picture with a telephoto lense, because I was unwilling to get any closer than 100 feet. I hate those things. I have ever since I was about 10 years old and my little brothers put a few of them in my bed as a fun little surprise. Or was it the many times that I opened up the cool whip tub in the fridge and found frog legs floating in water? Whatever started it, those feelings are still with me, but hopefully I haven't passed them on to my kids.

Hey Liz,
We got one too! Was it from the Gallman's house? We got a cage complete with lights and warming pad for ours. And now it's the new family pet "Skippy" Yeah us. (That's sarcasm) Well at least Olivia's happy!

We have a frog that lives in our yard and I think he's cute (from a distance... I even took pictures). I didn't know frogs could survive in AZ. For days Courtney & Valerie would hunt for him at night... but the novelty has worn off. Now they just play with their Webkinz frogs...
